01/09/09 - Freshers Week
First of all, thanks to all of you who came to see Tom’s first gigs back with us at Blackburn and Liverpool, we had a blast! For all you students, we’re playing a few gigs during Freshers week, starting at LJMU, via Manchester Met, and finishing at the UK’s biggest Freshers Festival in Birmingham, ‘Student Block Party’ with The Wombats and Tinchy Stryder. Coaches are going from uni’s all around the country and you can get your tickets from www.studentblockparty.com
In other news, we have a new video up on this page, it was filmed during the Mathew Street Fringe Festival at The Masque!
20/08/09 - Update
We’ve been “busy” practicing with our new bassist Tom over the past few weeks to get him up to speed with the songs, all going very well! You can see new pictures from our recent photshoot in Liverpool by CLICKING HERE. Our first two gigs back are next week in Blackburn and also a free gig at Liverpool Barfly for Mathew Street Fringe Festival. Then in September we will be hitting a few unis during Freshers week which should be a lot of fun! Stay tuned for more updates!
06/08/09 - Personnel Change, Hello/Goodbye
Due to family commitments, we are sad to announce the departure of Chris from the band. We’ve had a fantastic two and a half years with him at the bass-helm and will be very sad to see him go. He’ll nevertheless remain a big part of the whole Alexis Blue family.
When we first sat down and discussed what we were going to do once he had left. Over 3 years of being in close proximity to 2 other gentlemen means your sense of humour and general attitude becomes very refined, and as such - the new recruit had to be someone who ‘got’ the band. Then it hit us… Chris joined to replace Tom ‘Carron’ McCarron, who had left the country to get himself a degree in Psychology. How long does it take to get a degree? 2 and a half years! We got on the blower to him, and the rest is (will hopefully be?) history.
The first chance you’ll get to see the new look Alexis Blue lineup perform will be on August bank holiday weekend, with gigs in Blackburn (28th) and Liverpool’s Mathew St Festival (31st, FREE). So pop along to see the beginnings of a new blue era.
We’re off to do a couple of photoshoots, tara
Andeh, Mark, Paul + Carron
