Event details: Ambassador Theatre - Gigs - Scouting For Girls
Description
Tickets are on sale now priced â¬27.50 incl. booking fee at all usual Ticketmaster outlets. Â
The trioâs 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 Sheâs So Lovely. Â
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 âsixerâ in junior school, has known him even longer. During their college years all three played with the band Cape but it wasnât 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 (âCome see me, discreetly, she says she's got a trick or two to teach me!â goes âSheâs So Lovelyâ), playful wit (âElvis Aint Deadâ is a tale of a frustrated paramour hoping his lover will return to him, inspired by the anythingâs-possible attitude of the Elvis Is Alive theorists) and cloud-gazing dreams (âJames Bondâ is about drummer Peteâs belief that he would one day be the new 007) of childhood.
