Biography
Brix & The Extricated are an English alternative band, formed in 2014 in Manchester, by ex-Fall members Brix Smith Start (vocals/guitar), Steve Hanley (bass guitar), his brother Paul Hanley (drums) and Steve Trafford (guitar and vocals).
The band formed in 2014 in Manchester, following the launch event for Steve Hanley's autobiography The Big Midweek. A fifth member, Irish guitarist Jason Brown completed the line-up. Though their live set initially consisted of Fall songs they had co-written, this quickly expanded to include the new material which featured on their debut album.
They have performed three live sessions for fellow ex-Fall member Marc Riley's 6 Music show, played the Latitude and Rebellion festivals and completed several successful tours of the UK. They released their debut album Part 2 in September 2017 on Blang records, which was described as "One of the great indie-rock releases of the year" by Drowned In Sound.
