Artist Spotlight: The Rumble Strips

I've delayed posting anything about UK band the Rumble Strips, who I first heard on BBC Radio about a month ago, but this recent news story has inspired me to put their name out there on the site. To our UK following: If any of you will be in Bristol next Wednesday, let us know how the show is! I've heard good things.

This video, for their song Motorcycle, sounds like Freddie Mercury fronting a mariachi band. Intrigued? Of course you are!

The wonderful Rumblestrips have revealed that they will play a secret FREE show in Bristol next Wednesday as part of the French Connection 'A New Movement’ online campaign.

All fans need to do is sign-up to the following official A New Movement site www.anewmovement.com to put themselves in with a chance of winning tickets to the Rumblestrips evening Bristol show. Those lucky enough to win tickets will be notified of the precise venue the day before the show (i.e. next Tuesday).

Zane Lowe played The Rumblestrips brand new single 'Motorcycle’ last night. Catch the muchas positive chat in Zane’s Radio One chat room here - http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/mbradio1/F2675881
