The Wombats - Next Friday March 20th

By Jenny Huston on March 15, 2009 6:37 PM

JENNY HUSTON WITH WOMBATS LIVE AT OXEGEN 08

RTÉ 2fm, Friday 20 March, 9.30pm

At first, The Wombats were a joke they didn't want anyone to find funny. But this was back in 2003, when The Wombats were enrolled in Paul McCartney's Liverpool Institute Of Performing Arts (LIPA). Yet, it wasn't too long before Liverpool had to start taking The Wombats very seriously indeed. Ditching the sanatorium moods and comedy outfits they set about playing their infectious punka pop deviance around Liverpool and beyond. After supporting Kaiser Chiefs in Europe and Babyshambles on their Christmas 2006 UK tour, The Wombats signed to 14th Floor Records mid-way through what scientists believe to be the longest and most excruciating UK tour known to rock: 50 dates with around 4 days off. Simultaneously, the latest single Kill The Director became not just another dancefloor hit but a real-life big boys chart hit too, hitting Number 35 in the UK charts, June 2007. Their first real album, The Wombats Proudly Present: A Guide to Love, Loss & Desperation made it to 11 in the UK album charts.

Recorded by RTÉ 2fm on the O2 stage at Oxegen on Saturday 8 July 2008.

Plus all the great new singles!

JENNY HUSTON

Friday 9.30pm - Midnight- New and timeless indie rock and pop.
