'Fab, groovy, pop-music for discerning listeners'
(Louder than War)


Interesting Wallpaper is a fiery indie-pop band known for their infectious energy and dynamic performances. Fronted by Pete Harvey’s commanding vocals and electric guitar, alongside co-pilot Leyanne Coombs’ magnetic stage presence (complete with whirlwind spins and flying hair) their sound fuses raw power with musical depth.  The band also combines the nouvelle vague bass lines of Monsieur Alexandre Parent with the unshakeable groovy beat of his versatile drummer daughter Ruby. Their live shows ignite a mix of exuberance, intensity, and flair that captivates audiences of all ages.


Previous festival slots have included:- Wickham Festival, Ventnor Fringe Festival, Southampton Music in the City, Gabefest, Beggars Fayre and Southampton Beer Festival.  Support slots with Funk and the Two Tone Baby, Martin Stephenson (Daintees), Rozi Plain, Monochrome Set and Norway’s Flammer Dance Band.


With two No. 1 singles in the South Coast Music Chart 2024, and playing the IOW Festival 2025 they’re definitely a band on the rise!
