Catfish and the Bottlemen are a British indie rock band, formed in Llandudno, North Wales in 2007. Their debut album, The Balcony, reached number 10 in the UK Albums Chart and achieved Platinum status on 30 December 2016.

We were appointed by BBC Music as the Creative Production team for ‘The Rise’ - a 30 minute iPlayer documentary 10 moments throughout the band's 10 year journey.

Paradise captured the band in conversation with Radio 1’s Jack Saunders, backstage at BBC Introducing Live at Tobacco Docks this year. From throwing demos on stages, rocking up and performing wherever they saw a crowd to platinum sales and headlining festivals - they show no signs of stopping and are on their way to becoming one of Britain’s biggest bands.
