Scissors back at the 'Zang, this time with Peel appeal!

We had a great time at Ultrazang last year - the best night out in Ipswich!  So we were jolly pleased to be asked to play again at the 'Zang's new home, the John Peel Centre for Creative Arts in Stowmarket.

And doubly pleased to be playing with our chums the Voodoo Trombone Quartet, purveying their eclectic brand of exotica/lounge/ska. Don't let the name deceive you either, for they are, confusingly, an eight piece...

Also on are our good friends Butterfly, with their lovely psych-prog stylings, and a fantastic solo guitarist, Rob Castellani.  We've seen him in action before and he has to be heard to be believed!

This is going to be one awesome night, we can't wait...

31 March,  John Peel Centre,
Church Walk, Stowmarket IP14 1ET

This Saturday's gig - we're not playing, sorry!

Due to unforseen circumstances, we're no longer playing this Saturday at Cambridge Man On The Moon. It'll still be an awesome gig, but it just won't have us in it.
Next chance to catch us live will be 31 March at the John Peel Centre for Creative Arts in Stowmarket. Hope to see you there!

The Scissors on Cambridge Riffs, December 2011

The Scissors feature on the December Cambridge Riffs podcast alongside a load of other great stuff. Please go check it out, it's a great eclectic smorgesbord of aural education and enjoyment!

'SOS' in drag

We also opened with a more conventional cover of ABBA's 'SOS'. Well, a bit more conventional.

'Does your mother know?' / 'Anarchy in the UK'

We mashed up ABBA with the Sex Pistols at the R*E*P*E*A*T anti-xmas/new year party. In drag, as you do...
