Thursday June 7th
DRIVE BY ARGUMENT
SHOWING OFF TO THIEVES

Cafe Mamba, Taunton

Doors - 9pm, Bands - 10pm
Tickets - £4 before 10, £5 after.

Forming in early October 2004, DRIVE-BY ARGUMENT are an Ayrshire based quintet fusing guitars, synthesisers, keyboards and both acoustic and electronic drums to form their dance-rock sound. With plans to take over the world through non-violent means recently scampered, the boys-still weighted down by their teenage years and paint that won't dry-turned their hands from diplomacy (and sedating, at that) to music. Their next story may also be one of tragedy, paralleling the disappointment felt upon realising their world take-over bid had come to an unsuccesful climax. It does, however, not have to be this way. One day that paint might dry, thus, bringing us to the end of a completely pretentious and unnecissary tale. Watch this space.

Support on the night comes from SHOWING OFF TO THIEVES. They are exploding onto the UK scene with their debut release 'Everyone has their secrets' (Glasstone/Lockjaw Records). European Winners of EA games Burnout Bandslam competition as voted by over 2.5 million myspace users, We Are Scientists, and Virgin Records.They are driven by powerful vocals, incisive lyrics and crushing rhythms. This is music that soundtracks our lives, cinematic in scope and upheld with raw ambition. With melodies soaring between epic highs and delicate lows, their distinctly british sound has achieved the rare balance of intimacy and power.

Formerly known as The 'Luscious' Rickys, the Rickys are Tauntons hottest indie five-piece. Spurring tunes reminiscent of Blur, The Clash, Interpol and The Smiths this band is a must see. Having played over 75 shows since forming in 2006 and supporting the likes of The Sunshine Underground, The KBC, Chikinki, Make Good Your Escape and The Infadels these lads are on the wave of the indie surf and looking to conquer the UK at a storm! The boys released their debut EP 'The Fashion' in October 2006, recorded by Neil George at Coombeshead Studios in Devon. Following the departure of drummer Simeon Rodgers in May 2007 The Rickys are back on road with new members Andy and Ian, new catchier tunes and a spring in their step! Don't take your eyes off this space, summer 07 looks like its going to be a big couple of months for The Rickys!
