AN up-and-coming pop band formed at the University of Cumbria are to soundtrack the institutions’s promotional videos.
The university has chosen to use homegrown band The Tailormade’s self-penned track ‘The Best Days of Our Lives’.
The band, made up of Matt Pickersgill, Jack Frimston and Aaron Murphy, formed the band in 2013 while studying in Carlisle.
Most recently they became Radio One stars when they busked in competition with a disguised James Arthur at London’s Waterloo Station with Breakfast Show host Nick Grimshaw labelling them the station’s house-band.
Speaking about the University of Cumbria’s film, Jack said: “It feels really nostalgic to us all. We genuinely did have the best days of our lives while at uni in Carlisle so we are incredibly proud that this track has been chosen for their videos.”
Matt added: “We all loved Carlisle and the university so for our music to be used in this way is pretty special.
“It’s a real nod of approval to us and that means a lot.”
