Athlete is an indie rock band formed in Deptford, London, comprising Joel Pott [lead vocals and guitar], Carey Willetts [bass and backing vocals], Stephen Roberts [drums and backing vocals] and Tim Wanstall [keyboards and backing vocals]. Recently, the quartet have recruited Jonny Pilcher as a live guitarist. Friends since the age of fourteen, Athlete took their wide ranging influences such as Grandaddy and The Flaming Lips and started jamming and practicing in the basement of The Bear, a pub which was converted into a church and sandwich bar, on Deptford High Street in 1999. They began recording there, before sending demos out. Signing with Regal Recordings, they released their first single in February 2002. The band came to prominence in 2003 with their debut album, 'Vehicles And Animals', producing popular singles such as 'You Got the Style' and 'El Salvador'. The album earned a Mercury Music Prize nomination and went on to sell over 250,000 copies. Their second album, 'Tourist', reached No.1 in the UK Album Charts in its first week, following the huge success of single 'Wires', which, in 2006, won them the Ivor Novello Award for "Best Contemporary Song".
'Beyond the Neighbourhood' is the third studio album by English rock band Athlete and was released in the UK on September 3rd 2007 by Parlophone and will be released in the U.S.A.on September 25th 2007 through Astralwerks. The album peaked at No.5 in the UK Album Charts. The album takes a notably more homegrown approach than the band's first two efforts, having recorded by the band themselves in their own personal studio, and features less session musicians than their previous album Tourist [the only main collaborator is guitarist Jonny Pilcher, who is currently playing in the band as a live musician]. The overall sound of the record seems to be more coherent in whole, and is thought to be a retread of the quirkier side of the band on their debut album Vehicles And Animals, whilst expanding on the more mature approach to songwriting on 'Tourist'. The album includes the single 'Hurricane' which was released August 2007.
