Grows Fins

A 2 track single () — released July 21st 2008 on Bumpman Records

# #
'Grow Fins' is the follow up to there debut single 'Chateau', which was released on Bumpman Records in February this year, earning strong, early support from Steve Lamacq and Zane Lowe - winning both their listener votes on their Radio1 and BBC 6 Music shows separately -plus rave reviews from the NME, The Fly, Drowned In Sound and many others. The song was recorded and produced at Flood's bedroom studio in West London, where the band used some rather unconventional instrumentation, including the use of their homemade 'rockenspiel' (made from a small wooden glockenspiel bought on ebay) and the drum parts being performed solely on drum cases. The end result is a lovingly nurtured, and charmingly shambolic sound that is full of the band's personality and edge. The scuzzy blues-folk quartet have taken their splendidly raucous live shows on the road, and are currently supporting fellow London rock'n'rollers Vincent Vincent and the Villains on their UK tour, which they'll follow with a clutch of boutique festivals this summer, including Secret Garden Party, Belladrum and Blissfields: Limited 500 copies. 14th June Rhythm Factory, Whitechapel London 5th July De La Warr Pavillion w/The Puppini Sisters Bexhill-on-Sea 6th July Blissfields Festival Winchester 27th July Secret Garden Party Cambridge 1st August Standon Calling Hertfordshire 2nd August Kendal Calling Cumbria 4th August Brickyard Carlisle 5th August King Tuts Glasgow 8th August Belladrum Festival Nr Inverness 10th August Fordham Festival Fordham
