Sets are a group of Kent musicians who formed a band in 2008 while they studied in Yorkshire at the University of Leeds and Leeds College of Music. Sets' music features multi-vocal harmonies, violin, flute and harpsichord supported by a tight and inventive rhythm section. The approach of combining innovative and accomplished instrumental performance with the melodic lead vocals of singer Dominic Scott gained Sets a dedicated local following whilst they studied at university. The band have performed several live sessions for BBC DJ Alan Raw, who is a vocal admirer of their music, as well as sessions for Leeds Indie Radio, a performance at an NME after-show party for The Vaccines, support for Grey Lady act Tom Williams & The Boat at the famous Brudenell Social Club along with numerous performances at bars and venues across the city. Nationally Sets have performed on the main stage at the 229 club in London, the Deaf Institute in Manchester and The Tunbridge Wells Forum (the venue where the members first cut their musical teeth with various local acts in the mid 2000's.)
Sets have now graduated and returned to live in the South-East with the intention of continuing to perform in London and the local area.
