Leicester’s rockabilly pioneers The Drugstore Cowboys
were formed in 1997, and have since then taken their brand of smokin’ country
roadhouse rockabilly to many a spit and sawdust pub, venue and festival all
over the UK and Europe. Nick Whitfield (guitar) Tom Bull (upright bass) and
Damon Clarridge (drums) have just released the long awaited third Cowboys album
‘All Tooled Up’ on Smokin Records. Expect the unexpected and a high energy show
from the rowdy roots rockers!
Empress Of Fur are a freaky four-piece from Fenland
farming country, who in their own words look like the bastard offspring of an
unholy four-way bunk-up between Bettie Page, Zorro, Uncle Fester and Mr Macphisto.
They sound like the equally unwanted children of the Cramps, Link Wray, Nancy
Sinatra and the Rezillos! Gretsch guitars drenched in reverb and echo, strange
hallucinatory voodoo beats, heartbeat bass and siren vocals: that's Empress of Fur!
Remember;
always check with the venue before travelling:
