That's them. They've got a couple of good songs but generally they're not my cup of tea. Good to see that Round Records is doing well though!

yup most people know them only from gay bar and high voltage. and they are also seen as a bit of a novelty band. this is not the case. electric six are awesome, one of the best live bands going

the first album had the hit singles on, but they are now on their fifth album. all their albums are worth getting, and i recommend you do so straight away!

id be tempted to say that electric six get me more excited than the wildhearts, but its such a close call than im not going to

They put on a sterling performance at Glasgow Green a few years ago.

I really enjoyed the 2nd album - some classic tunes on there!

On another note, wonder if there's any other bands signing to Round?
