Motlow formed in late 2006 and are Phil Cunniff, Jimmy Verhaege, Tom Law and Sam Packwood. Their music has varying influences, ranging from Oasis and the Stereophonics, to The Smashing Pumpkins and the Foo Fighters. After recording their first demo in January 2007, Motlow have played at various venues throughout the Northwest, including the Tavern in Wigan and The Attic in Accrington. Towards the end of 2007, Motlow will be heading to the Barfly in Camden for their first London gig, and are planning to record their new demo in early 2008.
