They played about 7 or 8 songs then had a meet and greet.

Currently they are supporting Skunk Anansie on Tour and they supported Slash earlier in the year with Slash even playing a gig wearing one of their T-Shirts!!! :D

They have an EP out just now with a full Album due early 2011 and they are Touring on their own in the Spring next year.

Great bunch of guys and was a bloody good Session tonight. :clap:

Will post Video's of the Secret Session as soon as they get uploaded on Rock Radio Website.

Cheers. :)

Have to agree with the Prof here.

Saw them support Skunk at Bristol tonight and they were awesome!

The drummer stole the show. Mesmerizing.

Bought a copy of the ep too :)

[Professor Abronsius]

Yeah the Drummer reminded me of Animal from The Muppets.

They are a great bunch of guys. Got to meet them after the Secret Session. Photos are up on Rock Radio Website but still waiting for the Videos.

And they are Touring themselves early next year. :thumbs:

[Nige]

A big thumbs up for these guys form me too-saw them supporting Gun earlier in the year and thought they were fantastic :)

[brendonw]

I'll watch out for the tour dates and the full album. These guys deserve a chance. They work very hard and that shows in their stage act.

[Professor Abronsius]

Getting Tickets for the gig in Glasgow in March. :thumbs:

They sold a stack of EP's at the Secret Session and donated all proceeds to the Help For Heroes collection Rock Radio were doing that day. :)

[Nige]

New EP "Just A Ride" available for pre-order at http://www.townsend-records.co.uk/stores/virginmarys

Having heard the title track I can confirm it's brilliance-in fact it may be my fav VMs track-a title previously held by Bang Bang Bang!

[Professor Abronsius]

Live version of Take A Ride is above... :thumbs:

Thanks for the heads up.

Had never heard Thousand Times or the China Girl cover before, so was nice to get them as a free Download.

Will add them to the 4 Track EP once i receive it. ;)
