Thanks to all at Tweedies Bar and everyone who braved wet and windy weather to come along and watch us at the Grasmere Guzzler Festival. We had a lovely time and enjoyed sampling some fine ales including the big 11 percenter that tipped the balance for a few of us. A certain little drummer boy will be sorting out his bar tab in due course!
The lovely man, Tom Robinson played our song ‘A World Away From You’ on his introducing show last night… Many thanks to the great lad!

Firstly a massive thanks to Mike McClean at XFM who picked us out of thousands of unsigned band entries.
Thanks loads to all who voted for us in that crazed text in vote campaign to get us to play at this years Wakestock.
The weekend was a massive success with wind, rain and sunshine enjoyed by all. On Saturday we got off our trolleys and on the Sunday we played the huge XFM festival tent to a quality crowd of Mekkit brother lovers.
Rather funny vodka induced interview click the link below JAA…
