iC1s

iC1s broke onto the scene in 2011 with the release of their debut single Levitate, recorded in a basement for £50 - but landing in the UK Top 200. Touted by Creation Records legend Alan Mcgee, championed by BBC 6s Steve Lamacq and signed by a Libertine - the band went on to share stages with DMAs, Carl Barat, The View, The Rifles, Revered & The Makers and many more. By 2014, the band were recording their debut album with Barny Barnicott (Arctic Monkeys/Kasabian), headlining London's Scala and touring up and down the country. However, owing to the long standing tradition of bands destroying themselves in a maelstrom of ego, arguments and bad management - the band fell apart in late 2014 before the albums release.
To mark 10 years since the bands dissolution, iC1s returned in October 2024 for a sold-out performance at The Camden Assembly alongside the release of new singles 'Don't Change' & 'Talking in Slience' - their first recordings in a decade.
2025 saw the band record and release their debut album - the aptly named 'What Took You So Long?'. To mark the occasion, the band played their largest headline show at Camden's prestigious Dingwalls on Saturday 8th November 2025 to a sell out crowd. To close the year, the band supported The Rifles and Inspiral Carpets on several on their winter tour dates.
Spring 2026 saw the release a two new singles - 'Outta Reach' and 'That Was Then' - while the band continue to work on the follow up to 2025 'What Took You So Long?'.
