24Hours, formerly called 24 Hour Party People named after the film about the Manchester music scene, hail originally from Xi’an. They create, in their own words, ionate rock and roll.
Solidifying their lineup in May 2007 with bassist Zhang Chen, guitarist
Ren Yilan and drummer Li Guanyu, the three share vocal duties.In Summer 2007, the trio released their debut EP in Xi’an using a pure
DIY ethic, handling production, mixing and art design themselves. They played their first show in Beijing in 2007 and caught the eye of local musicians Yang
Haisong (P.K. 14) and Li Qing (Snapline, Carsick Cars). With their help,
the trio signed a deal with Maybe Mars Records. They moved to Beijing
in early 2008.via http://www.maybemars.com
