The Paddingtons at Manchester Roadhouse on 8th April.
The Paddingtons formed in Hull in 2002 and smashed their way on to the music scene with their infectious blend of anthemic punk/pop, taking no prisoners as they fast established themselves as the darlings of the London 'Indie' scene exploding at that time.
Fast forward seven years and 4 top 40 singles, a critically acclaimed album ‘First Comes First’, sold out tours all over the world, and an army of devoted fans later, one of which being Babyshambles front man Pete Doherty, the band were in love with being a band but were left disillusioned with the industry itself. In 2007 they decided to take their music into their own hands and created an independent record label, 'Mama-Bear Records' from which they released their long awaited second album, 'No Mundane Options'.
The band is readying for the release of their new E.P 'The Lady Boy Tapes', set for release in April. The E.P was produced by 'Dirty Pretty Things' guitarist Anthony Rossomando and band mate Didz Hamond and mixed by 'Super furry Animals' and 'Belle and Sebastian' producer Tony Doogan. 'The Lady Boy Tapes' EP will feature 5 new tracks including a duet with Adam Green, called 'Lady Boy'. The band will be touring April and May in UK and Europe in support of the EP release.
