Who Are The Technical Difficulties?

The Technical Difficulties have been together since meeting at university in the mid-2000s.

On the radio, we won the inaugural Kevin Greening Award for Creativity in 2008, and a Bronze for Best Entertainment the year after at the Student Radio Awards. It was all downhill from there.
