'Scratching around'
THE Scratch play edgy, humorous British punk pop and have just released
latest single Against the Grain - a Supergrassy supercharged pop fest.
Formed
in 2002 the St Albans-based five-piece are working on their third album
to be released on their DIY label Ponyland Records.
Having
played the MEN Arena in Manchester to 22,000 people as part of the
Versus Cancer gig supporting Noel Gallagher, Echo and the Bunnymen and
Ian Brown, they also gig regularly on the London circuit as well as in
Herts and Beds.
Guitarist Steve Whittaker has just joined the band after fronting Stevenage/Letchworth/Baldock rockers Look At It Go!
He
said: "My first gig with the band will be on February 17 at the Dublin
Castle in Camden, followed by a BBC 3 Counties session on March 6.
"We
have also confirmed a residency at The Horn is St Albans, with the
first show supporting Goldblade - fronted by Stone Roses biographer
John Robb - on the first date of their UK tour."
Against the
Grain is available for download at iTunes, Sony Connect, Music Now, MP3
Tunes, Greatindiemusic, Flip, Rhapsody, Nifty, LoudEye-OD2 and CDBaby.
