Smiley & The Underclass / Drunk Girls v The Ferret
Smiley & The Underclass
Smiley and The Underclass emerged two years ago from the melting pot of West London’s Ladbroke Grove as the
sound of 21st Century multicultural London.
Echoing the rebellious call to arms of The Clash and Dylan, infused with the bass-heavy vibrations of Jamaican sound system culture, Smiley sings the revolution blues with a burning fire largely missing from today’s music scene.
Heavyweight horns punktuate the skank of urgent guitars driven by relentless rhythms that are guaranteed to put holes in your shoes.
As catchy as Arctic Monkeys but South of the border, as young and endearing as Jake Bugg but unadulterated by pop and as cool as King Krule but with a rootikal injection; The Underclass bridge the divide once more between rock and reggae with a flavour of their own, potent enough to awaken all punk rockers and roots rebels in this modern era.
The eponymous debut EP captures the promise of
what’s to come from Smiley and The Underclass. Produced by Nick Manasseh and featuring the legendary trombonist Vin Gordon, it’s a striking reminder that the time’s long overdue for a raw new sound and this could well be it.
The soundtrack to the revolution is here. All you have to do is tune in....
Drunk Girls
Drunk Girls play anthemic indie rock with super-tight melodies and glorious harmonies. Lead singer and guitarist Tom Turrican writes songs about dealing with the bad days and holding on to the good days, about reminding yourself how to find hope in a ruthless and broken world.
Stalwarts of the Preston scene since 2014, Drunk Girls is comprised of Tom Turrican, Christmas McKendrick on drums, Lewis Hill on bass and vocal harmonies, and Matt Gerrard on guitar and additional harmonies.
Drunk Girls celebrate life and the strength of love and friendship, and hope you will join them in making a stand against the dark times.
