Armed with an unwavering intent and a sound filled with raw power. The Fakers have travelled the country and supported bands such as The Inspiral Carpets, From The Jam, Big Arm (Paul Ryder – former Happy Mondays), and many more. With an EP due to be finished shortly and the proposed summer preview of a Dice Roll Productions documentary at the London film festival, a piece based upon the last two years in the life of the band. The Fakers are now poised to ambush the big stage that they so rightly deserve. Feel free to peruse over the Dice Roll music videos on here, listen to the music, and if you’ve not yet seen The Fakers live then watch this space for live dates and venues.
Hi -we wanted to let you know of a few important things happening in our little world. Firstly, we release our debut single (a ltd edition 7 inch vinyl record & also available as downloads) "The Contessa" / "Snake Charmer" in a few weeks on dctone records. Copies of this single will be available on SEPT 26 which is also the date of a big London show we are playing @ Crossfire (held inside 229 The Venue in Gt Portland St opposite Regent's Park) to celebrate the forthcoming launch of our debut album "SIX AGAINST EIGHT."
The show features an enlarged band with special guests and shouldn't be missed - an all-nighter follows our gig with DJs from across Europe.... The album is produced by Donald Ross Skinner (Julian Cope etc) & features 14 original tunes - it will be available as a CD (see www.dcfontana.com) and as downloads. Our next Birmingham gig is this Saturday SEPT 12 @ The Sound Bar +support:
On Sunday SEPT 13 we also play @ Bullit in Tamworth and on WEDS SEPT 30 we are @ The Underbelly in London playing with the legendary Damo Suzuki (Can). Please stay in touch and look out for the records and the gigs!

We've got two very different but very awesome shows for you this week...
First up is THE DEAD FORMATS (Visible Noise) on Wednesday 1st July. For fans of THE CLASH and THE JAM, The Dead Formats are catchy choruses, post-punk ethics and true self belief.
Supporting are THE JET BOYS, IN ISOLATION and SINATRA.
And if that doesn't float your boat, SAUSAGEFEST 2009 is coming up on Sunday 5th July, featuring the best on local and national metal and hardcore. THE RED CHORD, THE ARUSHA ACCORD, MARTYR DEFILED, RANDOM CONFLICT and loads more!
SEVEN has some pretty good stuff coming up over the next couple of weeks with the best of up-and-coming talent both locally and nationally. Take a gander below- something might just take your fancy...
Feel free to drop us a comment or a message... it's what we live for, innit.
And if that's not your cup of tea, how about a UK exclusive show with Tyla and The Dogs D'amour on Saturday 6th June, as part of the UKs' premier sleaze & glam clubnight Wildside's 6th birthday celebrations!
Please note, this is NOT a solo or acoustic show, but a full electric set featuring all their classic songs!

Then not only one, but two clubnights until the early hours- Wildside and Maximum Overdrive!
