Band Members Dec. Floyd and Simon

Southport positively revel in the mid to late 90s UK melodic punk sound popularised by Leatherface, Hooton, Blocko, Snuff and all the other bands that even though you are too cool to still admit to liking, you occasionally dig their records out when a bit drunk and wistful for a simpler time. It is a quintessentially British sound, there are no bands in any other part of the world that make this kind of music in quite this way. It's all about the simmering energy and sweet melody, songs of a familiar mid-pace, not too slow and not too fast, a non-threatening middle aged pace of a bunch of guys who have great ears for melody, and piece it all together to make crunchy music that simply works and brings a smile to the face.

Southport - это в какой-то мере олстарс проект, так как в нем принимают участие мужики, сделавшие себе имя в таких британских командах, как Snuff и Blocko. Что же до звучания, то тут вполне традиционный саунд Британии 90-х. Легко улавливаются параллели с Leatherface, Hooton 3 Car и прочими деятелями того времени.
