The final two shows of the October “launch tour” were at a packed Jagz in Ascot and at the “Turn the clocks back festival” The Priory Hotel Scunthorpe. We were thrilled with the reaction after both shows and can’t wait to play some more live shows soon. We would like to thank Terry, Ollie and Tom for their help getting us on and off stage during October. Cheers boys! Our main priority now is to finish our debut album which we hope to release early in 2012. The album will include tracks that we have played at our October shows and some exciting new material.
