The Sherlocks are one of Britain's most exciting contemporary indie rock bands, earning widespread acclaim for their anthemic sound, energetic live performances and impressive run of chart success. Formed in Bolton upon Dearne, South Yorkshire, the band comprises brothers Kiaran and Brandon Crook alongside Alex Procter and Trent Jackson. Since emerging on the UK music scene, The Sherlocks have built a loyal fanbase through relentless touring and a string of acclaimed albums, establishing themselves as one of the country's leading independent guitar bands. Today, they are regularly hired to perform at festivals, corporate events and exclusive private functions, where their high-energy performances consistently captivate audiences.
The Sherlocks began performing together in 2010, initially playing covers in garages before writing their own material and building a devoted local following. Their breakthrough came when they became the first unsigned band since Arctic Monkeys to sell out Sheffield's Leadmill, attracting attention from across the music industry. In 2017, they released their debut album Live for the Moment, which reached No. 6 on the UK Albums Chart and introduced audiences to tracks including 'Live for the Moment', 'Escapade' and 'Heart of Gold'. They followed this success with Under Your Sky, World I Understand, and People Like Me & You, cementing their reputation as one of Britain's standout indie rock acts.
The band's success has continued to grow with the release of their fifth studio album, Everything Must Make Sense, in 2025. The album became their highest-charting release to date, peaking at No. 4 on the UK Albums Chart while reaching No. 1 on both the Official Independent Albums Chart and the Official Record Store Chart. Alongside a sold-out UK and European tour, The Sherlocks have supported major artists including Liam Gallagher, Kings of Leon, Keane, Kaiser Chiefs and The Libertines, further strengthening their reputation as one of the UK's premier live indie bands.
The Sherlocks are renowned for delivering exhilarating live performances packed with indie rock favourites and infectious energy. Audiences know them for songs including 'Live for the Moment', 'Escapade', 'Heart of Gold', 'Sirens' and 'Bones', while their appearances at leading festivals and tours with some of Britain's biggest rock acts have made them one of the country's most sought-after live bands. Whether performing at festivals, corporate events or private celebrations, The Sherlocks combine powerful musicianship with an unmistakable stage presence, guaranteeing an unforgettable live experience.
