Miniature Dinosaurs was a pop/rock quartet from Stirling in Scotland. From the offset, the band gained recognition when their song '(I want to watch) Top Gear' received airplay from BBC Radio 1 three months before they had even played their first live show. With a reputation for energetic performances and well-crafted songs, brought to life by Barry's distinctive vocals, the band soon becoming a favourite within the Scottish Music Scene. Despite showing great potential for achieving big-time success, Miniature Dinosaurs broke up in 2014. They did, however, digitally release the album they had been working on before the split, leaving us with a bunch of catchy tunes to remember them by.
