Imagine, if you will, a chance meeting between Shakin' Stevens, Type O Negative and the teenaged ghost of Lauren Laverne in a Bootle social club. Shakey takes offence at Pete Steele's tasteless eye make up and starts kicking off, only to be calmed when the Fazakerley branch of the Jehovah's Witnesses turns up with the latest issue of the Watchtower featuring an exclusive interview with Cliff, the man who Shakey will never be. Awesome Wells is somewhat like this. Armed only with a sense of mild disgust and a shared love of Ace of Base, Awesome Wells was formed with but one aim - to encourage reluctant nuns to ditch one habit for another, more salubrious, kind - the habit of rock.
12.47pm, March 3rd, 2007 - The cafe in Clayton Square by Internationale - two scousers and a brummie form a band. They like Jack Daniels, sticking their feet out of taxis and chicken roll. Together they express their disatisfaction with their friends' boyfriends and their mutual worship of cats through the mediums of disco punk and interpretive dance.
Awesome Wells writes songs about Paris and Paris Hilton. They sound like Screamo and Regional Mexican Swing and C86, a mix of Sigue Sigue Sputnik and Gerry and the Pacemakers, except with flugal horn. If you can't give peace a chance, at least give Awesome Wells one. A chance, that is.
