Starting out from the humble town of Bangor, Northern Ireland, Two Door Cinema Club fast-forwarded to international acclaim with their freshly baked indie pop sounds. The band, comprising of Alex Trimble, Sam Halliday and Kevin Baird, has produced several high-charting tracks like 'Undercover Martyn', 'What You Know', and ‘Sun’. Their signature blend of upbeat rhythms with bittersweet lyrics is special and it has a knack of getting your foot tapping almost involuntarily.
A fact not known to many is that the band's name actually stems from a cinema turned music venue, Tudor Cinema, where they used to hang out. Their videos, directed by artists such as Lope Serrano, have often been compared to cinema. For example, ‘Sun’, directed by Jul & Mat, is a deliciously weird blend of retro aesthetics and sci-fi elements, resembling a 60s commercial that involves cloning. 'Undercover Martyn,' on the other hand, is a delightful romp through the streets of France, capturing the sheer joy of youth in music and life. And we can't forget ‘What You Know’, a fantastically artistic video where they break the fourth wall and lampoon the music video production process itself, complete with bored extras and alien invasions. Through their gliding melodies and unforgettable videos, Two Door Cinema Club have secured their place in music history, but not without adding a distinct touch of creativity and humor to the mix.
