If you're going to the Water Rats Theatre in London and don't know who the supports are, then you're in luck. I have compiled a listing here, based on their respective websites.

First off, is the Souls, their website is www.thesouls.co.uk.

>>>
NME said of The Souls: "the Souls make this rock&Roll lark seem like the most life affirming thing ever"

Listen to four MP3 files by registering on www.sgdsolutions.com:

  • Alabama
  • Delta Blues
  • Gansta Gansta
  • Keep Your Eyes on the Money

    Note: these files are only samples, but they give you an idea of what they sound like.

    The next band is Alumbinum Babe, their website is: www.aluminumbabe.com.

    You can order their EP from Mother West.

    >>>
    What do Alice Cooper, The Sex Pistols and Swedish kids songs have in common? Ask the "babe" in aluminum babe, Anna , who drew her musical inspiration from these elements in her hometown environment in Stockholm, Sweden. Her band is bi-continental, and is making its mark on New York City and Sweden with its aggressive punk rock that's buttered up with coy pop edges. Simple, direct and passionate, aluminum babe's songs and no-bullshit spirit breathe life into the punk rock genre like it hasn't seen since the original days of the Ramones and early Blondie. Declares the New York Press, "Finally someone combines bubble pop hooks with raw punk power without sounding like anyone else".

    They have full-length songs on their website:

  • Oh yeah
  • Billy
  • Dream dancing
  • I don't wanna be loved

    Check out "Dream Dancing", which is my favorite of the list.

    Here are some information about Rebus: www.rebustheband.co.uk

    There seems to be a huge buzz on this band, and I believe the singer also goes by the name DJ Alex Rebus.
