A British hard rock, blues, and R&B band formed in 2011, the Temperance Movement consists of Glasgow-born lead singer Phil Campbell, guitarists Luke Potashnick and Paul Sayer, bassist Nick Fyffe, and Australia-born drummer Damon Wilson. The group's powerful live shows garnered them a solid fan base, and they signed with metal label Earache Records, releasing an EP, Pride, in 2012 and following it with a self-titled full-length, The Temperance Movement (which included the five tracks from the EP plus seven new tracks), in the fall of 2013. After touring extensively for two years -- including a support slot for the Rolling Stones -- they headed back into the studio for their second album, White Bear, which saw release in late 2015. The following year, guitarist Potashnick left the band, replaced by Matt White, while drummer Damon Wilson also bowed out at the end of 2016 to focus on family life, and was replaced by Simon Lea. 2017 saw the newly refreshed line-up enter the studio with producer Sam Miller -- who had worked on the band's previous releases -- to record their third album. The resulting A Deeper Cut was released at the beginning of 2018. ~ Steve Leggett
