Matty Newts
Guitar and Vocals
Newt was born in UK but early in life he traded the rain for the irresistible cold of Canada. This beautiful man has started Neon Detour and still is a driving force behind our songs while mercilessly shredding on guitar and screaming terrifyingly enough to make you soil yourself in the pit
Julia Borden
Bass Guitar
What happens when you mix in a prog-rock background and genuine excitement about things alien to the rest of the band? In simple words: the Bassist of Neon Detour. Julia has brought a breath of fresh air into our band while simultaneously ensuring the boys’ survival through their silliness. Also any of the artwork since Animosity is to be pinned to her doing
Matty Bartlett
Drums
A perfect marriage between cuteness and pure insanity! Probably the most unhinged drummer you have ever seen, this guy can make any song better and believe us, we wouldn’t even try telling him what to do. Please don’t try to catch him after a show, he’ll disappear the moment you turn around
About us
Equal parts heavy, melodic and just plain fun, Neon Detour brings to the stage a high-energy interactive live show with powerful vocals, sweeping dual guitar harmonies and genre-hopping metal insanity. Neon Detour make the kind of music that we want to enjoy, and the resulting blend of technical riffs and catchy choruses will have you on your feet and in the pit in no time. Our debut single was released on all streaming services in July 2023, and the upcoming EP …It’s All In Your Head has been announced for June 15 2024
