"Best Alternate Act in the Cumbria and SW Scotland" - TGM Awards.
Steamed Clams are a band of no specific genre. about us.
Over the past several Steamed Clams have been active in the local music scene gigging their crazy and slightly comical sets. They recorded and brought out an E.P and played at pubs as small as The Blue Lamp up to 500+ capicity venue's such as The Forum 28.
Throughout the band's history, they have always had fun and enjoyed playing to their loyal fans around the local area. We realised that Steamed Clams had been pushed as far as we could of taken it, and finished it off in style.
