Upcoming gigs

A quick lowdown on a couple of Bands I rather like that you can see playing fairly low key dates in the UK

THE RUMBLE STRIPS

Likened to Dexy's Midnight Runners (I guess mainly because of the use of a brass section and footstomping soul beats) However dont let that put you off as they are clearly destined for great things in the future.

The Rumble Strips are:

Charlie Waller – Lead Vocals and Guitar
Tom Gorbutt – Sax, Vocals and Bass
Henry Clark – Trumpet, Vocals and Piano
Matthew Wheeler - Drums

Latest Single: "Alarm Clock" released on the Fallout label (A subsidiary of Island)

(Right click and "save target as")

Alarm Clock

Live:
Northampton Soundhaus, Monday 26th March
Nottingham Junction 7 Friday 30th March

Also: Check out the "Cardboard Coloured Dreams EP" Released last November on Fallout records


DAMONE

If you like your Indie Rock with thick slabs of guitar a la Blink 182, then check out Danone. These guys came to prominence in 2006 stateside, but we get a chance to see what all the fuss is about as they play a couple of dates here in the UK in March

Live
Mean Fiddler, London Tuesday 20th March
Nottingham Rock City Thursday 22nd March

You can find song streams from their latest album on the Damone Website

If you go to see either of these Bands, be sure and let me know what you thought.
