Every fortnight a radio show like no other... Bows and Arrows Against The Radio...

NEXT SHOW - SUN 28th JANUARY

Indie, alternative, dodgy Britpop, and other phantasmagorical delights. Who could ask for more on a Sunday evening? Not us. So check out our show on fortnightly Sundays, on Sheffield Live. It will change your life, honest.

BANDS! Add us as your friend, and if you have downloadable tracks you may well end up being played on the radio. That's not bad, is it? Eh?

The Bows and Arrows Against The Lightning fanzine may or may not happen one day. It's as much of a mystery to me as to you.

Hi !

It’s been far too long since I last said hello and so much has happened I thought it about time we did.

We’ve changed a lot, now we are an “UltraModern, post-electro rock, post-nu rave behemoth where Muse and Mansun meet a Massive Attack with Duran Duran pop sensibilities, louder guitars, and a stunning female front person/guitar virtuoso”, or so we have been told.

I’d love to know what you’ve been up to since we disappeared into the dark damp studio cave, let us know how it’s going, I’m always up for a chat!
May your thoughts be Scarlet and your actions Blonde ;-)

Hi friends, We would like to let you know that our website, Myspace and Facebook page has BRAND NEW MATERIAL available to preview. Updates include tracks from our forth-coming album and promotional video. Please click on http://www. the-gentlemen. co. uk/comingsoon. php/ and follow the links to Myspace/Facebook. As we are spending a lot of time in the studio at this moment, as well as recording a brand new music video, we are performing very few dates this summer. However, hopefully amongst the dates listed on Myspace & Facebook (including various European bookings), there will be ample opportunity to catch a show in the very near future before our release and official UK tour. In the mean time, we are returning home to Sheffield for ’An Evening With The Gentlemen’ to showcase brand new tracks from the forth-coming album and exciting new stage show. Venue: PLUG Nightclub Time: June 7th – 7pm Doors Open Tickets: £5 adv / £7 on door Age: 14+ Only Box Office: 0114 2413040 Tickets also available at http://www. the-plug. com/shop/ and Jack’s Records in Sheffield, UK.
