New songs for the summer

Here's the lovely poster for our tour in a few weeks' time. See the Gigs page for full info.
We're working on some new songs in time for these dates, some of which you'll be able to hear at the upcoming Elm Tree and Buzz Festival dates.
The weather may be cold, but we're feeling hot, hot, hot!

Ultrazang at the John Peel Centre

Big thanks to everyone who came out to Ultrazang on Saturday! We had a great time, despite Huw being encased in a plastic box for the benefit of the sound recording - the whole night was filmed as part of a show reel for the Centre, so you'll be able to see some of it on youtube no doubt soonish.

In the meantime, check out our images page to see some awesome pics taken by photographer Henry Murphy!

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...

Playing with Gunslinger at Ultrazang!

We're really excited to be playing at Ultrazang this Friday (4 March, PJ McGinty's in Ipswich), with Benjamin Bloom and the awesome (and loud) Gunslinger! Gunslinger is the new project from Alan Davey, former singer/bassist with the legendary Hawkwind! Benjamin Bloom is the former lead singer with Rosalita, and his new band is both melodic and theatrical. Promises to be a great night!

If you can't make it, we're also supporting Benjamin Bloom the following week when his tour hits Cambridge Haymakers...
