Resume:

“…The band were singled out from the Brighton music scene when they were invited by BBC Southern Counties to perform at the BBC Introducing stage at Glastonbury 2007. Since Glastonbury, Doll and The Kicks have been busy playing live and recording tracks in the studio with producers Oscar the Punk, (who are known for their remixes for Gwen Stefani, Robyn, Moby and Roisin Murphy) and Grammy Award winning mixer and producer Simon Gogerly (Madonna, U2).

 

2008 has seen their live shows emerge with performances that include, The Great Escape, London Calling, Beachdown Festival and Brighton Live, as well as dates throughout the UK and Europe. Media enthusiasm has grown with coverage from Sub TV, Channel M, BBC Southern Counties, Kerrang Radio, The Brighton Guide, London Lite, Total Guitar, Artrocker, Ponytail Magazine and You Got Papped.

 

Autumn 2008 has the band busy solidifying their ‘ones to watch’ status, by appearing on the Diet Coke music portal, recording their debut album and building on their existing fanbase with selected live dates. “
