Warm Parts continue to cultivated a loyal local following and have performed consistently across West Yorkshire's best music venues such as The Golden Lion (Todmorden) supporting Parastatic, Sister Ray Davis, Pale Blue Eyes; The Grayston Unity (Halifax) supporting Pale Blue Eyes and Mirror Revelations; and further afield at The Globe (Glossop) supporting Fuzz Club’s Maquina and at Amped (Huddersfield) supporting The Utopia Strong, amongst a range of other successful, well attended shows.
“I was taken back to the late 1960s when Hawkwind were blowing minds with pummeling, psychedelic waves of sound. They are certainly continuing and sustaining their musical journey into the oeuvre of outsider, psychedelic, weirdness – noise-rock, a little akin to bands such as Wooden Shjips”
