Band of Skulls is a rock band that formed in 2008 in Southampton, England. It consists of Russell Marsden (guitar, vocals), Emma Richardson (bass, vocals), and Matt Hayward (drums), who formed a band after they all met in college. Initially, they played at night clubs in the greater London area and recorded some demos under the name of Fleeing New York before changing their name to Band of Skulls in November 2008. Their debut album Baby Darling Doll Face Honey was released in March 2009. The track "I Know What I Am" was chosen as iTunes' free Single of the Week to coincide with the digital release. The band's single "Friends" from album “Baby Darling Doll Face Honey” was included on The Twilight Saga: New Moon soundtrack in November 2009 and propelled them to stardom. Band of Skulls repertoire reads like a who’s who of classic rock and alternative influence, yet each live song is wax-stamped with their own unique identity and a modern twist and will go down well with the Wakestock audience.
