New to Q: The Troubadours

Comments

Classic scouse rock

From the opening notes you can tell this lot are from Liverpool: they channel three decades worth of the city’s most tune-rich guitar bands, from The Pale Fountains in the ‘80s to The La’s in the ‘90s and The Coral in the Noughties. They might even be the next in that royal bloodline. Veteran producer John Leckie, who was behind an early version of the The La’s self-titled debut from 1990, certainly thinks they’re a bit special as he recently polished two tracks for them, which are currently on-line. The ecstatic Gimme Love is particularly fine.
The Troubadours’ debut single will be released in August.
