Postcode began life when Marie Reynolds asked Mikie Daugherty to write songs with her in early 2005. Two songs were written but lost, before they began work on what would become ‘Zebracore’ in the autumn of that year. Busy with their other bands at the time, it wasn’t until the beginning of 2007 that the album was complete. At that point, also coinciding with the demise of Mikie’s other groups, it was decided to bring in other musicians to play live and Postcode became an actual band with Mike Flood on drums, Christian Daugherty on bass and Andy “Gifted” Clarke on second guitar, Mike being later replaced by Martin Rigby. 　　 　　Andy moved back to England in August 2007 and the remaining four members of the band wrote and recorded the second album ‘Zebraland’, which was released in September 2008, following ‘The Post-Zebracore E.P’ which came out on Filthy Little Angels Records earlier that year. FLA also featured Postcode on two Christmas albums and their 2010 Pavement tribute album. 　　 　　Christian’s departure in 2009 deeply affected the band, causing the next album to be an acoustic affair, consisting of stripped down versions of older material and several new songs by the duo of Mikie and Marie. 　　 　　Over the years Postcode have played with the likes of Goldblade, Darren Hayman, Zombina And The Skeletones, UK Subs and The Gifted. 　　 　　Steve Halsall joined the band as bassist in 2011 and apart from a few local gigs and a small tour of Germany and the UK we've been rather quiet of late but with new guitarist Kieran Ball, who joined the band in June 2013, we hope you'll see and hear a lot more from us especially as Martin Rigby left the band in August 2013 but we now have the powerhouse that is Jonny Peacock hitting the ole skins and have written a few new tunes and are resurrecting some old ones and are getting ready to record our third album (Dec 2013).
