The Southern Electrics return this October with their first UK headline tour, previewing their second album.
The Southern Electrics started 2006 with a hugely successful UK tour, as the official support for Japanese Rockers ELECTRIC EEL SHOCK, & have spent the summer in the studio recording the follow up to their successful debut Electric Superhighway. The as yet untitled second album is due for an early 2007 release, preceded by their next single So You Want to Be Me.
The Southern Electrics have built a formidable reputation & following, playing regularly at top UK venues including Cargo, 93 Feet East, Rock City, Clwb lfor Bach, The Barfly, various Carling Academies, along with a headline slot at Beached Festival 2005 & a riotous performance at HMP Holloway Womens Prison.
Theyve also received extensive radio airplay, including BBC Radio, RTE2 FM (Ireland), Today FM (Ireland), Totalrock & XFM, a live BBC Television Session with BBC Live Music Director David Amphlett, Sky & Cable Television play of the Electric Superhighway Promo Video, as well as providing the music to the successful Harley Davidson road trip documentary Barcelona Burnout - a huge hit on digital & satellite TV channel Men and Motors.
