We have a new EP out in a few weeks. Pre-order now, and get our version of Electric Six's 'Danger! High Voltage' as an immediate download, which sees us rip off Patsy Cline AND Slade in the same song.

Fill yer boots, bab.

Lots of fun was had on The Woodland Stage at Bearded Theory last night. Beautiful setting amongst the trees, and a real blast to play to such an appreciative (and huge!) crowd. Enjoy the rest of the weekend, folks, and thanks for having us along for the ride.
