As a Rock band goes,,The Nightstealers have pretty much done everything opposite to what a band should do,instead of seeking fame fortune and tours,and playing at large prestigious venues and been a part of the music hype!The Nightstealers have play'd on the image as underground musical outcasts,and deliberatly stuck to playing small venues,where and when it suits them.So it is suprising that The Nightstealers have built a cult following on the world internet with there brand of raw but catchy rock songs,,from the Beatlish sounding Fly Away,,to the Who/Byrds sounding,track For You,which was dedicated to the Sophie Lancaster Foundation,and dubbed a Goth Rock Folk song by songwriter Terry Hughes,tounge firmly in cheek!,at the abomination of musical styles.
The Nightstealers gained further recognition after one of there songs,(FLY Away) was featured with the movie Valhalla Rising,on the bonus credits,but was only mentioned to songwriter Terry Hughes,in the credits.This prompted The Nightstealers to release a Free Album called The Nightstealers ReMasters,which got downloaded world wide,and the songs turn up on various independent radio sites,world wide,and ironically getting the band featured with NME music site!
Often erratic,eccentric and unpredictable,lead guitarist & singer/songwriter Terry Hughes would turn down management and record deals,saying he would rather stay at home with a nice cup of tea!preferring to be the musical outcast.While Drummer Amjid Hassan,And Bass guitarist Mietek Klimek both have there own bands and musical projects aside from The Nightstealers.
We await eagerly for The Nightstealers next anticipated Album,and future Live shows.
