CVC

BIOGRAPHY

CVC are a six-piece musical collective hailing from the sleepy Welsh town of Church Village. CVC’s members include Francesco Orsi (vocals); David Bassey (Vocals/Guitar); Elliot Bradfield (Vocals/Guitar); Ben Thorne (Bass); Tom Fry (Drums) and Daniel ‘Nanial’ Jones (Keyboard/Percussion). Life in Church Village is laid back. Situated at the top of a hill in the Welsh Valleys around 10 miles north of Cardiff, it keeps things simple: there are a couple of rugby pitches, a few pubs all within walking distance of one another and that’s about it. Until now CVC, or Church Village Collective in full, named their band after the place they come from and, if they have it their way, will soon bring international renown to their hometown. CVC’s message is a universal one “peace and love and good times, stay real, stay true and that’s it.”

Throughout the summer, CVC have been busy on the road, garnering a new and highly devoted fan base due to their incredible and celebratory live show. Wowing on stages like Reading and Leeds, through to sold-out hometown shows in their native Wales, their electrifying performances have left audiences joyously chanting the band’s name as they leave the stage. With rave reviews from the likes of The Arts Desk ("CVC live is something else and everyone should go see them as soon as is viably possible”), they’re not a band to miss: catch them while you can.
