UK - The Script, the band from Dublin that hit number one with their self-titled debut album and toured with N*E*R*D, The Hoosiers and Newton Faulkner, became household names in Britain in 2008. And the band did it with a range of Sennheiser microphones in their audio arsenal - including SKM 935s and wireless e 935s for lead and backing vocals.

"I've been using the 935s for a long time now," says the band's front of house engineer John Delf. "I first bought some when I was touring with a band called The Departure. These mics give you so much level you never need to worry that you won't be able get the vocal over the rest of the band. They sound clear and crisp, with bite. I'd been using the wireless version with Lily Allen with great success. I'd always been happy with the results when using the 935s at her shows, so it was always going to be my first choice for The Script.

"We took two Neumann KMS 105s out on the road with us for The Script's UK Tour this past summer," continues Delf. "I had covered some shows doing front of house sound for The Feeling, I was standing in for my friend Jon Sword, and they use Neumann mics. They worked really well for The Feeling too, especially the KMS 104s on the backing vocals."
