"Like going to the circus on acid!" www.fipzie.com
A riotous concoction of blues, punk and psychedelic gypsy rock, Leicester’s Dirty Backbeats’ live shows are pure chaos, reigned in only by the magnetic pull of their awesome onstage antics and exhilarating music. Expect sweat, blood and tears, and some of the most original and magical music to come out of the midlands. Pure rock’n’roll for the 21st century.
The Dirty Backbeats are a high octane 5 piece combo from Leicester blending Beefheart's mystic blues skitz, Love's RnB infused psychedelia and a healthy dose of English eccentricity. The band honed their sound throughout 2005/6, attracting attention from national and local media and as a result have developed an enviable live reputation that has seen them compared to artists as diverse as The Cramps, The Who, Tom Waits and Kings Of Leon.
This acclaim has grown considerably with recent airplay on BBC Radio6 from Steve Lamacq, Rob Da Bank and Marc Riley and Huw Stephens on BBC Radio 1. The Band recorded a session for BBC Radio 2 for the Mark Lamarr show who has featured tracks from the band many times, including whilst covering for Jonathan Ross on his Saturday morning Radio 2 show.
New songs are to be previewed at forthcoming shows before the year is out, whilst there is also talk of an EP release later in the year
