Rock n roll quartet Pink Cigar are about to launch their debut album, 'We're Gonna Get You Out Of Here', on November 4.
Hailing from the Ladbroke Grove area of west London, the bluesy-glam-punkers have spent the last couple of years honing their musical chops and earning their dues playing live, thundering through the capital’s rock scene and breaking down the walls of every venue they grace, bringing an intensity and energy that just can’t be bought and needs to be experienced.
Having earned a reputation for the fiercest live show in the capital, word started spreading around the UK when Pink Cigar toured with the reformed Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster prior to releasing a debut self-titled EP in 2012. A roadblocked showcase for it at Camden hotspot The Hawley Arms saw them take the venue by storm and garner a clutch of rave reviews.
A single entitled ‘Blues To Bed’ followed later in the year (replete with a mayhem causing video shot in their own backyard of Portobello Road), before the band holed up in the studio to record their debut album. The opening salvo from this highly anticipated release was the louche rock groove of ‘Lady Killer’, released as a single back in the summer. Watch the video for the song below.
‘We’re Gonna Get You Out Of Here’, is released on the Sawn Off label on November 4 and the band will play a launch show at the Black Heart, Camden, the same night.
Other dates include:
November 16 - Purple Turtle, Camden
November 21 - The Cuckoo Club, London
November 27 - Notting Hill Arts Club, London
Pink Cigar are: Sharkie Cottrell - Vocals; Edd Whyte - Guitar; Sam Rutland - Bass; Sid Mayall Drums
