Cohesion are the creative vision of Andrew O'Hara. His finely crafted pop songs and his diverse vocal range - from the soothing and soulful to the passionate and pulsating - all reveal a definite sense of optimism lying within the music. The vocal contrasts are complemented perfected by rest of the band who hang infectiously-melodic guitar hooks on a fluid backbone of bass and drums. There is nothing excessive in the sound, yet in an instant the gentlest melodies can explode with an emotional charge that both emphasises and empathises with the subjects of the songs. And all together this defines Cohesion. Formed in Manchester in 2003, Cohesion have built a solid reputation for irresistible pop-rock and consistently excellent live performances. They are committed to a campaign of energetic amplified and delicate unplugged slots across the city and are breaking new ground in new venues every month.
