Welcome...

to the official Varnish web site

Born in 2007, Varnish is steeped in the influence of dark, jangled pop via post-punk UK music that was dressed to kill and to do it fabulously, as well as "pre-punk" New York City bands that set the stage for the modern and alternative rock scenes that came next. Music where confusion becomes clarity and the extremes of human emotion are separated by a precariously thin tightrope, all backlit by a beautiful dissonance. Read on...

Varnish are currently willing to consider managers or labels and are available for gigs.

Each to Each EP

Songs about the hopes we cling to and the regrets that cling to us. Rooted in rain-soaked cities and dry mouths, Varnish want to stand by you when the lights go out and occasionally point out the stars. (Released 1 December, 2011, Each to Each delivers five studio tracks and three live tracks. It's what you've been waiting for, so click that cover picture now, lovelies!)

There should be something new to see at least every couple weeks now that the site is up and running, and the hope is to get a little something up every week.

You could inspire the next new thing.)
