The Rapports is a four piece Indie Rock band from Brighton, south east of England who wear their love of 90’s and 00’s Brit Pop and Indie proudly on their sleeves. Formed in 2016 during songwriter and singer Thomas Skilton’s days at art school studying sculpture, the band play to packed hometown crowds, counting performances at the Great Escape Festival and supporting Cast to a sold out audience at Komedia as highlights. More recently, at the end of 2021 they hit the road with Creeping Jean for their autumn UK tour, passing through Southampton, Liverpool, Manchester, Brighton and Sheffield.
The Rapports have spent the last two years toing and froing over the Channel, preparing the final stages for the album release. Recorded between Noa Music’s 4A Sound Factory in Normandy and Brighton’s Retreat Studios, they have been working with legend engineers Andrew Lyden (John Martyn, Bob Marley, Buzzcocks, U2) and Sie Medway-Smith (Depeche Mode, Rita Ora, Björk, Massive Attack). Skilton, also a stage and costume designer has curated the videos and artworks to bring to life the much anticipated debut album.
“This band are brilliant, the single AMAZING……..Check em out” Mike Jones – This Feeling.
