Wolvo show set to be fine and Dandy
10:07am Thursday 4th December 2008
AMERICAN indie band The Dandy Warhols are best known for their media friendly track Bohemian Like You.
The four-piece from Portland, Oregon, have been making records since the mid 90’s and produce an eclectic mix of sounds ranging from anthemic rock to keyboard powered pop.
Their latest album, Earth to The Dandy Warhols, has been hailed as their finest work since 2000 and includes a contribution from legendary guitarist Mark Knopfler.
After live dates in Australia the group are set for a tour of Europe including four shows in the UK in the run-up to Christmas.
Catch The Dandy Warhols at Wolverhampton’s Wufrun Hall on Saturday December 13, for more information call Midland Box Office on 0870 320 7000.
