Save BBC 6 Music - music is fast food now
2010.03.04 15:42:52
Ok it's a scandal - the BBC is a public service and needs to get a grip...so SAVE BBC 6 MUSIC cos it's one of the few stations that plays music outside all the commercial bollocks thats aired nowadays. Im so fuckin fed up. Music is like fast food now... nobody gives a fuck how food tastes, or smells or what ingredients are in it or how much love and care was given to making it and preparing it. Just ram it down yer throat and buy the next shit sandwich...

Live at The Attic Bar Glasgow CANCLED
2010.03.03 12:28:00
Hi folks just got a message from the promoter for this one to say the gig has been cancled. All the other bands on the bill have pulled out at the last minute so they decided to cancel the whole night! Sorry this is short notice but just heard 5 minutes ago. We do have some more dates lined up and will have them on the site soon.

Cheers

What a week that was, Liquid Ship and PivoPivo
2010.02.15 15:57:17
Hello! Well what a good week it's been - a great article from Billy Sloan in The Scottish Sunday Mail, more plays on his show and our first Absolute Radio play plus an article in ZapBang magazine we also got a great review in music news.com - it's all hotting up for the release of Flying To The Ground on Feb 22nd. Remember to check here for details on where to buy the single. We're just off the back of some really nice gigs and it was good to play the unplugged shows!

We decided to stay in Glasgow for a few more days and did another couple of gigs. First we did the Liquid Ship (Great Western Road, Glasgow) again which as we keep saying is a superb acoustic venue and then on the 10th we did PivoPivo (Waterloo Street, Glasgow) which must be one of Glasgow's best unknown venues - seriously great place, great sound and a brilliant people. Highly recommended!

Thanks to all who came to see us - I think thats the most dates in row we have ever done in Glasgow! Talk about kicking the arse out it haha

Talking of gigs we have a new "Gig At Ours" feature on our home page... go on invite us to play at yours and we will check out the homepage for details!

Finally I'm back writing away and will be heading back to London soon for some gigs - so if anybody fancies a beer in the next few days gimme a shout before I head home!

Common Rooms Gig
2010.02.08 11:51:34
Great night last night again - thanks to Andy who organises the set up here - great we night and great wee venue you have. This was a really chilled friendly place and we had a really good gig. We reckon we're drop in here whenever we're up in Glasgow for a few acoustica tunes - The Common Rooms and Liquid Ship are definitely on the radar for unplugged!

Playing Our Tunes!
2010.02.08 11:04:13
The last 10 days or so have been great! Tom and I played about six acoustic gigs, had a few good nights out and I’ve had at least three bad hangovers (not so good). We played a session for The Daily Record to put on their website which was fun and done a quick interview with John Dingwall. Tom also had an interview with Billy Sloan to talk about ‘Flying to The Ground’ for the Sunday Mail. And to top it all off we’ve had another brilliant review.
The gigs were all in Glasgow, starting with Glasgow Uni and finishing last night in the Common Rooms on Byres Road. A big thanks to everyone who came to the gigs all of which were great fun to play but if I had to pick a favourite it would be the one in the Liquid Ship on Thursday. It’s a cosy little venue on Great Western Road with a really nice vibe. Bands play downstairs which is a bit like a living room with a bar, has a fire in the corner and is lit by candles. It’s friendly and perfect for a very up close and personal acoustic gig. We also played a drunken spur of the moment gig in Box which is always fun.
I’m off to get ready to go to the studio now. I’m already running late, meant to be there in half an hour!
Speak soon, cheers

Capitol + Box
2010.02.03 00:00:00
Another cracking night last night - we played at Capitol in Glasgow unplugged again and it went down a storm - we  were pretty buzzed up after so we crossed the road to another favourite venue of ours, BOX, and blagged another gig - was really busy and again hit the mark with the crowd - good night all round! We had a hood time chatting with folks after the gigs so hi to Katie and co!
