MyGen Profile Generator DEBUT EP OUT NOW - Download it on iTunes here...
Salut, hello, Hallo, ????, ??????, Hola, Hej. We are the Uncomfortables, a band for the Noth West of England in a little city called Preston. We currently have a E.p out on itunes via Pistol Records and a video for "Vodka Stomach" on rotation with MTV2 and after recently completing a 30 date tour of Australia in Feb and Mar of 2008 we have been considering where else togo next.
We have decided on the lovely country of France. We will be venturing over on the friday 29th of August and returning Sunday 7th of September and we are looking for gigs from the 29th onwards.
In Australia we were featured on the Triple R, Triple J and Triple Z radio stations and had rave reviews in Drum Media, Beat, InPress, Time Off, Rave and TNT also enjoying triumpant gigs at the Hopetoun, Sandringham and Bald Faced Stag in Sydney, the Espy and Pure Pop in Melbourne and the Troubadour in Brisbane. Back home in England we have had airplay with Radio 1, as well as being on rotation with the University Radio stations plus supporting Baby Shambles, Jamie T and The Detarture.
We hope you enyoy our little myspace page and hopefully will see you soon.
