Hella Better Dancer formed at London's legendary Roundhouse Music Venue in 2009 after winning the Battle of the Bands competition. The line up consists of electric guitars, vocals, bass and drums.
In terms of influences the band draws inspiration from Arcade Fire, Yo La Tengo and Broken Social Scene: as much for their unity as a band as for integrity of the music they create.
In 2009 the band went from strength to strength - performing at the Big Chill Festival and the Emerging Proms Festival as well as recording their debut single, Hands.
2010 saw Hella Better Dancer sign to independent label Roundhouse Records, the first of its kind in the UK. In July 2010 Hella better Dancer released, Please Stay Here - EP, recorded with Kevin Paul, whose credits include David Bowie, Depeche Mode and Nick Cave. They premiered their EP as part of the 2010 iTunes Festival, filmed by Live Nation for ITV television.
Their second release, Swimming - EP, came out on Roundhouse Records on the 28th of February.
