About The Riots in their own words

Six people, one van, zero patience. The Riots started as a joke at a Leeds bus stop and never got funnier — just louder. Three-chord songs about landlords, weather, and each other. Colin's sax was meant to be a one-off gag; nobody had the heart to tell him to stop. They've been banned from two pubs and welcomed back to one. Reviews call them "unpolished." They'd be offended if it weren't true.
