We're thrilled to be supporting KOLARS at the Portland Arms in Cambridge on 17 July!
KOLARS is a Los Angeles duo that blends rockabilly, disco, glam, and mod sounds with modern rock through minimal instrumentation: guitar and a tap-dancing drummer. As Rob Kolar sings and strums his rollicking guitar, Lauren Brown uses her whole body as a percussive instrument, tapping out the hi-hat rhythm with her feet atop a bass drum while simultaneously playing a stand-up kit, using dance to transform rhythms into natural extensions of her movement. It’s quite the workout and undeniably mesmerizing to watch.

Look good in cheap clothes!
As revealed live on Stagger Indie last night, the next Scissors album will be called ‘LOOK GOOD IN CHEAP CLOTHES’ and will be out on German Shepherd Records towards the end of the year! (and t-shirts featuring the design below, related to the cover art, will be available soon!)
First chance to get your paws on one of the new t-shirts will be 17 July at the Portland Arms, Cambridge, where we'll be supporting the amazing KOLARS.
But you can also catch us live before then this coming weekend at Knackfest (Saturday 30 June, Karma Farm, Isleham Fen, Ely). We're on at 7pm, and you don't actually need to camp over to join the fun - just turn up and catch the set (it's free to get in though donations are welcome)!

Strawberry Fair 2018 review

Great review from Strawberry Fair by Cambridge Music Reviews...
'Some years the event can be slow to get going but this time the weather brought out a substantial crowd early on, including an appreciative audience for The Scissors opening the Rebel Arts Stage at midday. After a decade at the forefront of the Cambridge scene they can still strike a pose and rip it up with the best of them, aided by a selection of their own fastest and loudest songs, including I thought an extra turning up of the blazing sound system to a volume beyond 11 halfway through the set. Having seen them recently in the confines of the Cornerhouse venue, their rich and hypnotic swirling sound easily steps up to an outdoor show.'
