Glasvegas

One of my favorite newish bands is the Scottish band, Glasvegas. Fronted by a charismatic singer, James Allen, Glasvegas has won many fans around the world including U2 and Kings of Leon, which Glasvegas will be opening for this fall/winter.
If you haven't listened to the band head on over to itunes for a demo of some of their songs. Thick Scottish accent with heartbreaking lyrics with fuzzed out guitars and a cool 50's sound. I talked to James on the tourbus and he told me his main influences were Elvis Presley and U2.
