Article 3- Band signing. Final draft

We reported back in May 2009, that a local Portishead band had been signed by Sony Music Entertainment who signed Portishead back in 1990. Just like the group, Portishead, the band attended Gordano School and seems to be following in their footsteps.
After being signed by Sony, Full frontal, were jetted off to America where they are now working on their album which is scheduled to be released in the UK next summer. The recording studio, in which they worked in, has seen many stars such as, U2, Kylie Minogue and Robbie Williams.
It seems they have come a long way from where they were four months ago, and seem to be doing extremely well. “It’s incredible! Its very cliché, but we really do have to pinch ourselves to make sure we’re really here. It’s crazy”, Dom Blackman tells us over the phone from Los Angeles, the bands leading guitarist.
They have made a massive hit in America, stamping their mark on the charts over there, reaching number 3 in the top 10. Jane Whitfield, Hannah Whitfield, the lead singer of the bands mother, told us of her amazement of their success. “What an achievement. Who would have thought they would have that sort of success in such little time, we certainly didn’t expect it coming that quickly, but they truly deserve it”
Their sudden rise to fame has certainly had an affect on their home town, Portishead. The number of visitors to the area has increased, with people hoping to catch a glace of the band.
We are sure we will be expecting more from them in the up and coming future.


I found it much easier doing this article compared to the others. I had to add facts such as that the band were signed by Sony to add interest to the story.
The order of the story had to be changed also, as again, it felt more as a story rather than a newspaper story. This is the final draft.
