Sounds Like"I wouldn't put it in my 'Desert Island Discs', but its alright."
Michael Aspel of 'The Antiques Roadshow'

"I don't mean to be crude, but are you all shagging?"
Christine Ponsford - Area Manager of Sportsworld

"A seven piece from Derby who claim to specialise in "poor harmonies and communal clappiing", The Deirdres mess around with glockenspiels, tamborines, kazoos, violins, and something called a zube in the pursuit of a good time. Imagine the best bits of Architecture In Helsinki, The Hidden Cameras and every band you've clapped along to like an over-excited five year old. If they're half as fun as their demos, we're in for a treat."
