REVIEWS AND FEEDBACK FROM THE NEW EP "TIME AND TIME AGAIN"

"I love that these guys are still making quality music"".

Michael Mitchell (USA)

"The craftsmanship of the songs and sound is just as good as those halcyon days of the 70s. It has age and experience replacing the first flourishes of youth."

Iain Key (louder than war magazine)

"Brand new songs: all excellent!"

DJ Jack Rabid. The big takeover Show number 442

July 10th 2023 (New York Radio Show)

"The four tracks are great. Love the songs, totally impressed!"

Neil Storey (former Island Records press officer)

"These four songs-three new ones and a rejigged oldie, show that not only is there life in the old dog yet but also thrills, excitement and great tunes."

David Quantick

RECENT GIGS

In November 2022 we supported The Skids at Holmfirth Picturedrome. We went down really well in front of a full house at a great venue.

We played a sell-out gig at Disorder bar in Manchester on 26th May for the launch of the new Cherry Red compilation along with Fast Cars and Edwina Banger (see pics at bottom of page).

We did three gigs in July 2023: The Spinning top in Stockport, a very rainy Right To Roam festival in Bolton Town centre! And a celebrations of the life of Steve Shy, a seminal figure on the Manchester punk scene, at Gulliversin Manchester.
