Nice Guy

Initially formed as a four-piece in 2018 by current members Matt Bowen and Michael McCluskey, Nice Guy have evolved and grown, taking in new bandmates and larger horizons. Adding guitarist Josh Atkinson, bassist Chris Pittam and Patrick Oliver on keys, the indie rock band were committed to playing local gigs in Teesside, initially resistant to the exhaustion and drama of life on the road. From their debut single Fake Leather released through Middlesbrough label Goosed Records, to playing Twisterella in 2024, no matter how far they go, the band have kept their feet firmly in the North East.
