Biography

Hope Of The States were a post/indie rock band from Chichester in England. The band consisted of six members: Sam Herlihy (vocals, guitar, keyboards), Anthony Theaker (guitar, keyboards), Paul Wilson (bass), Mike Siddell (violin), Michael Hibbert (replacing the late James Lawrence on guitar), and Simon Jones (drums).

Preceded by the singles Black Dollar Bills and Enemies/Friends, the album’s release was postponed in 2004 following Jimmi Lawrence’s death; however, the group recorded new experimental material and bounced back four months later with album ‘The Lost Riots’ and single ‘The Red The White The Black The Blue’.
