Shout to the Top

London, 1988. Three ambitious young women form a band, Velveteens, to take on the world. But is the world ready? Armed with loud guitars, attitude to burn, and a makeshift manager, they are soon taking their first faltering steps into the music industry.

Written by two veterans of the business, Roy Boulter and Louise Wener, this is the story of a young band chasing the dream. With actor, singer and comedian Shane Richie as the band’s temporary manager, Vince, this drama-with-music charts the life of Velveteens from formation to first gig; from first demo to (hopefully) first record deal.

Get it On – Sleeper’s Louise Wener and the Farm’s Roy Boulter feed their experience of the music industry into this drama series telling the story of 1980s all-girl band Velveteens. After the heady excitement of last night’s party to celebrate their record deal, Velveteens are back to the realities of life.

Rip it Up – Louise Wener and Roy Boulter’s music drama returns as all-girl band Velveteens surf the wave created by their first single all the way from Top of The Pops to the west coast of America.
