    Backlash Live Present...
    FRIENDLY FIRES (Moshi Moshi)
    + Neon Love

    3 man band Friendly Fires stop over amid a hectic tour schedule for their Irish debut at Backlash Live next Saturday night. Taking in dates across the UK, aswell as Amsterdam and Razzmatazz in Barcelona, the Nottingham born group are a band in demand at present.

    Recently signed to the Moshi Moshi label (along with fellow Backlash favourites Lo-Fi Fnk), Friendly Fires have an accessible sound that coveres punk, funk, indie and dance. A little bit of a throwback to the 1980's, NME recently named them amongst "the top three indie bands in the UK".

    Their new single "Paris" is out next month, in the meantime expect an upfront, energetic performance down Backlash Castle next weekend; “I hate it when you see a band and the whole thing seems to be about the band being this spectacle raised above others, with people gazing up at them,” says guitarist Ed Gibson. “When people dance, it’s like everyone’s in it together. It’s more equal.”

    While Friendly Fires have been busy, so have we, Backlash Live has seen plenty of action in the last few weeks. James Murphy's curfew-defying funk & disco set last month was more than matched by a top notch show from Manchester's The Whip last Saturday, and with the Ting Tings and Alloy Mental lined up for the rest of the year Backlash Live has plonked itself right back on the map :D
