Glam Skanks
“ dazzle the crowds ” ( Huffington Post ) and are warming up for their UK tour with Adam Ant , which kicks off the very next day .
Recommended as having “ enough charisma to fill an arena ; which I suspect they ’ ll be doing soon enough ” by Playback STL .
Having just won a load of glittery hearts as special guests on Adam Ant ’ s US tour in February , Glam Skanks are ready to do it all over again .
They hit London at a time when too many female fronted rock bands are wondering why they aren ’ t being represented at the UK ’ s mainstream music festivals . It ’ s not like they don ’ t properly bring it .
Anybody would think that the biggest music stars weren ’ t Adele and Beyonce . ArtBeat is all for the special relationship ( in rock n roll !) and invite friends to make the weekend start early , again , for this “ I was there ” moment .
There was a literal FLOOD of superlative laden reviews from the band ’ s February shows with Adam Ant . Set for big things , female powered , star shaped rock and roll fun , and heading for this summer ’ s Camden Rocks .
Read the interview with Louder ThanWar , then get close at this show before Glam Skanks go stratospheric . Be part of their big warm London welcome !
