Malcolm Ross & Low Miffs : Exclusive Instore Performance!

The Low Miffs and Malcolm Ross
New Album – Malcolm Ross and The Low Miffs
Released on Re-Action Recordings – 7th September


The band will be making a very special visit to our store on Monday 7th September, and will be performing an exclusive set on the same day the album hits the shelves nationwide!


Want to know more? Read on.....


This August sees the much anticipated first fruits of the collaboration between Malcolm Ross, the elder statesman of Postcard pop (Josef K/Orange Juice/Aztec Camera) and The Low Miffs, Glasgow’s young pretenders to the Post-Punk/Pure Pop throne.
Bristling with the kind of effervescent guitar-play you’d expect from a Postcard veteran, the single The Man Who Took on Love flits effortlessly from its Television-esque intro and explodes into the self-same virtuoso territory once occupied by both Sparks and The Associates, with an appreciative vocal nod in the direction of both Bowie and Scott Walker.

The album is currently Vic Galloway’s ‘album of the month’ for August on his BBC Radio 1 show, whilst the single is picking up plays on Marc Riley’s BBC 6 Music, and Jim Gellatly’s BBC Scotland show, plus his online show at Radio Magnetic.Com. They will be performing a live session for Vic Galloway’s BBC Radio 1 Show on October 8th
