Description
From Event details at indublin.ie!:From Event details at indublin.ie!: After an electrifying performance on the Main Stage at this years Oxegen festival, Scouting For Girls will return for an end of year party at Dublin’s Ambassador Theatre on Saturday 13 and Sunday 14 December.  

Tickets are on sale now priced €27.50 incl. booking fee at all usual Ticketmaster outlets.  

The trio’s debut album has achieved platinum status in the UK and Ireland with their infectious brand of indie pop and catchy anthems such as Elvis Aint Dead, Heartbeat and their debut single She’s So Lovely.  

Formed in 2005 by frontman Roy Stride, Scouting For Girls are a living testament to maintaining visitation rights to your inner child. The band is largely made up of friends he has known for years. Bassist Greg Churchouse was the schoolmate with whom Roy first started playing music with at age of 11. Drummer Peter Ellard meanwhile, having had Roy as his ‘sixer’ in junior school, has known him even longer. During their college years all three played with the band Cape but it wasn’t until Roy left to form Scouting For Girls and taking most of Cape with him he found himself writing two tunes a day, all vibrant, buoyant piano-pop evocations of youth and young manhood; the girls (‘Come see me, discreetly, she says she's got a trick or two to teach me!’ goes ‘She’s So Lovely’), playful wit (‘Elvis Aint Dead’ is a tale of a frustrated paramour hoping his lover will return to him, inspired by the anything’s-possible attitude of the Elvis Is Alive theorists) and cloud-gazing dreams (‘James Bond’ is about drummer Pete’s belief that he would one day be the new 007) of childhood.
