We are Burmese Days, named after a book 2 of us read and raised by the river. At 17 We're young enough to get away with it, but old enough to know better. our socks are white and our aim is unclear.

Believe it or not they played with some of these bands and more:
Late Of The Pier
Lightspeed Champion
Laura Marling
Crystal Castles
The Maccabees
