About Me


Hailing from the mean streets of Lincoln, UK, The Flash Cars have been laid dormant for a while seeking academic enlightenment, or fixing peoples electrics. Yet the boys are returning this summer with a new line-up, some kick ass songs and more melodies than you can shake a stick at, maybe even two sticks...so come on down, enjoy the party, but ultimately keep it flash wherever you go...

Good Evening.
So So So...Hello there Myspace. Okay, so the band has been going through a few more changes recently and I thought I needed to keep you all up to date. Our Drummer has gone AWOL and therefore we have been looking for a new drummer for the band. We have a few interviews set up so that shouldnt be a problem. Sadly a couple of days before the drummer went AWOL, our manager and ourselves were looking into the possibility of doing a UK tour for a month in May, but that has obviously had to be put on hold. SO...what are we going to do now...well dont get yourself down Mrs Brown, as soon as the new drummer is in place we shall be recording and putting down 4 new shiny studio tracks for you to rock your socks off too and then hopefully put some sort of tour on...ahhh you see, and you thought you felt down cos of the cold weather...What great news...Hail the Flash Cars
Lots of Love as Always
The Flash Cars (minus 1) :)

Sounds Like: Being attacked by a hungry bear, yet he has no malicious intent because he's hungry, and really wants to share the food with you...then when you thought you were safe you've been kicked in the head by a kung-fu masterminded elephant wearing nothing but a bandana and a funky red number, yet he only wanted you're attention, and dances with you happily, as the melody seeps into your brain mixing up your serotonin and making it happy happy juice to quench your musical thirst...
