Lords play ATP vs Fans II this weekendLords play ATP vs Fans II this weekend

Miracle of miracles, Lords have been asked to play this year's ATP vs The Fans. They will be performing at 2.45pm on Saturday 9th May on the Reds stage. Do not go to the beach. Do have a very early drink and be prepared for the most rocking set of the weekend. With children and marriage happening, this really is the last Lords performance for the foreseeable future. Gringo will be camped in the merch area all weekend selling our wares (including Lords merch, new Gringo tees and the new That Fucking Tank album). Come say hello!

Lords and Bilge Pump in ATP vs Fans Top 100Lords and Bilge Pump in ATP vs Fans Top 100

We've been attending the ATP festivals for 9 years and we've never had a band get asked to play. Through the wonders of public voting, BILGE PUMP and LORDS appear in the Top 100 for May's ATP vs Fans. With Lords perched at number 100 could they be about to receive an offer to play? And if any of you yet to cast the die are reading this, vote Bilge Pump!

Stageblood and Dearest first gigs!Stageblood and Dearest first gigs!

Two new bands featuring Gringo alumni will be treading the boards for the first time on Friday 12th December.

Dearest include Dave, Dan, Neil and Simon of Seachange, together with their good friend Sebastian Tighe. You can see them in the comfy environs of The Chameleon in Nottingham.

As supergroups go, Stageblood have the potential to be up there with the likes of Blind Faith, Journey and Damnocracy. The combined talents of Summerlin (Lords), Aitchison (Mogwai), Kearney and Hopkins (both Eska) will be rocking like Tanner at Stereo in Glasgow. Expect a UK tour next year if all goes well!
