Pretty Crime is a four-piece band from Edinburgh, influenced by garage rock, punk, and 70s grunge, and described as tough and cuddly with a hint of synths. Initially formed in 2022 by Jess Sandham and Josh Lohr, the lineup was later completed with Emily Welham and Ryan Creighton. They recorded their first EPs at Glasgow’s Green Door Studio.
In 2023, the band supported Mannequin Deathsquad on their Scottish tour and performed at Sneaky Pete’s in Edinburgh. After a lineup change in February 2024, with David Morris joining as drummer, they began writing new material and are set to support Problem Patterns in October 2024.
