Turin Brakes... Balham Boys
Turin Brakes - Ollie and Gale - hail from Balham, South London.
Location: Balham , South London, SW12
Description: Yes indeed, stars of the superb long players, 'Jackinabox', 'Ether Song', and 'The Optomist' - Ollie and Gale (aka Turin Brakes), I am reliably informed hail from Balham...or the 'gateway to the south'. Why not pay South London a visit and take in a pint at the Bedford...a pilgrimage to 'Turin'!
