  • Our Neil in the X Factor!
  • Rave reviews from recent gigs
  • Iron-on maiden rock Ireland!
  • Video footage at the New Roscoe
  • A Blondie fan in the making...

Our Neil has made it through to a second audition of the X Factor. Neil wowed the panel with his version of Speed of Sound, by Coldplay, and got in a mention of ATOMIC. hardly surprisoing he's got another audition, Neil is the one who's responsible for those backing vocals you hear when we play live but are never sure where they are coming from... Good luck Neil - and Cowell, be nice!

We've had some great feedback from fans who have seen us recently at the New Roscoe and the Brooklands Hotel charity gig. What's even more flattering is that every one of them has commented we put on a better show that other well known Blondie tributes they have seen - and we even humbly accept a compliment that we are on a par with Blondie live back in 1980. Well, we do pride ourselves on putting on a great LIVE show - and every member of the band sounds and plays the part. There is a difference between putting on a live show, and putting out a stars in their eyes recreation of a choreographed video. One's hot, raw, fuelled with energy and nuclear vocals, and the other is, well, worth staying at home and putting on your video player for.

Si and Dave are doing fantastically well with their top tribute to Iron Maiden. Now the official tribute, the guys are soon touring Ireland with their show. Well of course the band were going to be great - the guitarist and drummer from a Blondie tribute band being able to play heavy rock?? That aint a normal talent, is it? Those guys are SPECIAL!

Fin, our bass player, suggested to John at the New Roscoe, that they loaded up footage of the bands that played there. Well Bob must be somebodies Uncle, cos the job is done - we're there as are many others. Check out their site on the link above.

A Blondie fan in the making? Kays little un is rocking with the rest of us when Blondie are on the radio, or mum is practising round the house -ready to step in to her shoes when mum retires. Well, Kay'll retire at the age Debbie does, so there's time yet!!

That's all folks!!! Stay tuned...

 

Demo We now have a two track live CD available, featuring Call Me and Hanging on the Telephone. You can request a copy by mailing or ringing us, (quite fitting really, what with the two tracks we've recorded) and we'll mail it out to you. OR, you can download the footage from this page. This will hopefully give you another great reason to book us or come to a show. What are the other reasons? Haven't we told you already? Well, to put it bluntly, we put on a great live show themed on Blondie circa 1979 (so not a copy of a Blondie CD, DVD or Video - hell you may as well stay at home and put your stereo/telly on if you want that) we don't mess about with a million costume changes as it takes up valuable performing time which we LOVE, we're easily affordable, and we're great value for money too! We also play with emotion, and mean every note and every word we play - this ain't no karaoke or stars in their eyes, you know!! We're definately the best bet for a gig up North, and anywhere else come to that, so give us a call.

Later,  fellow Blondettes......

Atomic
