Check out the video to the single 'Waking Up The Neighbourhood'
Here are some great shots taken by Trudi Knight of the band in action at Rock in The Castle, up in sunny Scarborough. A wicked day of rock we all had.
Like your rock pretty dirty…? Like your bands pretty and dirty…?
God may have created man but the gods of rock created Planet of Women. Combining the power of AC/DC with the live show of Tina Turner's soul revue, their unique line up echoes the pop sensibilities of The Supremes but with the sound of Aerosmith and the attitude of The Runaways.
What the papers say:-
"Located somewhere between AC/DC and The Supremes, 'Waking up the Neighbourhood' is an explosive debut single from a band who might just be the next best thing to happen to UK rock since The Darkness. They're better looking too." - Kerrang
“Real rock, cool cool cool infectious AC/DC flavoured rock – think early AC/DC fronted by Tina Turner, think classic Bellrays, think Young Heart Attack, think Montrose fronted by Janis Joplin - rocked-out dirty-guitar girl-fronted rock drenched with soul and a voice to die for.” – Organ Magazine
Single of the week –‘Despite the success of The Darkness, no one else has taken advantage of the demand for big showy rock. But these 3 south London girls arrive with a soulful twist, an in-your-face tune and a singer with a lung capacity twice as big as Janis Joplin at her most full on.’ **** - Independent Information

‘Waking Up The Neighbourhood’ is the bands first single, produced by Ace (ex skunk Anansie) & mixed by Dan Sprigg (Lostprophets), it’s an explosive anthem featuring Jade’s searing, Joplin-esque vocals and is guaranteed to be the most exciting slice of rock you have heard this year.

ReGetting played by xfm, Total Rock, Kerrang, 6 Music, Radio 2, BBC London and lots of regional stations.The track also reached ..2 in the Podcasting chart, staying in the top 10 for 6 weeks. The video has also been played on Scuzz a number of times, along with some great reviews in Kerrang, The Independent, Rocksound, Organ, Classic Rock, Bubblegum slut, Black Velvet amongst countless others.
Its pretty funny when you can buy a couple boxes of girlscout cookies for $3 and then later that night sell them to drunk patrons for $5 a box. We'll get in the studio faster than I thought we would! -Brandon
