SUMMARY:THE METEORS + Dead Hombres!
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to announce THE METEORS will be playing Club 85 in Hitchin for the very first time on Friday 4th April \nTHE METEORS were formed in 1980 in a reaction to the bands that were singing about ‘Big Green Cars’\, ‘Rocking This Town’ and being ‘Rockabilly Rebels’. Preferring their songs to contain topics about vampires\, stomping in graveyards and radioactive kids P. Paul Fenech\, Mark Robertson and Nigel Lewis soon found themselves all over the media. A media who were eagerly lapping up their new sound christened (though that is surely not the right word) – ‘Psychobilly’. \nTHE METEORS were front page news in the weekly music press\, recording radio sessions and interviews for legends like John Peel\, and gracing the silver screen care of a movie short that did the rounds with the Two-Tone movie ‘Dance Craze’. Their film ‘Meteor Madness’\, apart from hosting some crazed performances with the unhinged trio\, also featured songstress Lily Allen’s father starring as none other than the rather exasperated Devil\, strange but true. \nBy 1982 the original line-up had split\, with Lewis and Robertson going on to form their own bands\, while P. Paul forged ahead with a free hand with THE METEORS and his idea of how psychobilly should sound. That was a sound that had grown from one of a band’s own personal identity to a world-wide genre that is Psychobilly now over 30 years established and still growing and thriving around the globe. THE METEORS have continued to inspire and influence countless bands while continuing to lead the charge from the very vanguard. \n‘The Power Of 3’ is the latest studio album by the undisputed ‘Kings Of Psychobilly’. It is as uncompromising as ever and encompasses all the elements that have always made up THE METEORS brand of ‘Pure Psychobilly’\, mashing up rockabilly\, country\, surf and rock’n’roll. A sound woven by Paul Fenech’s rockin’ guitar and bile-spitting Beelzebub-rousing lyrics. ‘The Power Of 3′ proves once again that despite some aspiring would-be usurpers THE METEORS won’t be giving up that crown anytime soon. \nSupport comes from Surrey based Dead Hombres- the Primal Trashy Rock’n’Roll band with howling feedback driven Gretsch Guitar\, growling Rickenbacker bass swamped in Voodoo drum beats. \n  \nEntry £20 in advance\, MOTD.\nDoors 7:30pm \nTickets on sale from 10am on Friday 1st November from Seetickets and available locally from Bar 85\, H Town Rags and Davids Music. \nTicket link: https://www.seetickets.com/event/the-meteors/club-85/3218186 \n  \n\nAge: Persons aged 16+ may attend without a chaperone provided they have photo ID – younger patrons can be signed in at the door and accompanied for the duration of the show by a responsible adult. \nEarplugs are available upon request (50p). \nDownstairs bar open until 1am. \nWe are just a 5-minute stroll from the station.; like all our gigs this show finishes well in time for the last trains North and South to Cambridge\, Peterborough and London. \nFor full up to the minute listings please visit www.club-85.co.uk and consider signing up to our mailing list for information on existing and upcoming gigs straight to you!
