British indie-pop four-piece New Rhodes formed in Bristol and moved east to London. Though technically unsigned, they have put out three singles through Moshi Moshi, the label behind Hot Chip, Tom Vek and Architecture in Helsinki. Their influences include The Smiths, The Strokes, The Cure and The Velvet Underground. The band is currently touring in the UK and in addition to headlining they have supported the likes of Razorlight, The Dears, Delays, Hope of the States, The Killers, The Gliteratti, and The Futureheads and recently completed a UK tour as support for Bloc Party. New Rhodes' debut single, "I Wish I Was You", released in July 2004 on Moshi Moshi. It charted in the Top 75 (and number 7 in the Indie Charts). Despite its success, the band elected not to release it for download to the general public. Their last single "From the Beginning" was released in August 2005. The band line-up was finalised in the summer of 2006
