One of 2015's most exciting new bands Deers have been forced to change their name, and are now known as Hinds. 

The all-girl, awesome four-piece from Madrid have been gathering hype and momentum over the past months. Bloggers' flavour of the month they may be, but they're much, much more than that. We have no doubt that their warped, punky, youthful exuberance will be soundtracking those mental afteroons will into summer 2015.

However, it will be under a new name. 

“This is sadly the most official post we’ve ever made: We have to change our name," said the band in a statement. "We mean…they force us to. We received an email from a Canadian lawyer saying that our name created confusion with his band’s name. And that name is not even Deers (LOL).

"We tried our best, really, but we have no choice. So… Okay!!! Let’s take this with a smile !!!! Deers are now…Hinds! And we are still the same people, we are even the same animal! Unbelievable!! We don’t usually ask you guys for anything, but PLEASE you’d really make this easier for us if you shared this amazing info."

They added: "Let’s have a super 2015!! Hinds Sorry & Thank You See you on tour!!”
