Dinosaur Pile-Up formed in 2007 and their debut album Growing Pains led them to much critical acclaim in the UK. They quickly became one of the hottest bands of a new generation of U.K. rock acts. Comprised of lead singer and guitarist Matt Bigland, drummer Mike Sheils, and bassist Jim Cratchley, the band has been out on the road in the U.K. in support of their first record over the past couple of years. After a long run of tours in the U.K., the band went back into the studio to record Nature Nurture and successfully toured the U.S. for the first time. In the past, they've shared the stage with bands such as The Pixies, Cage The Elephant, You Me at Six, and Fidlar.
