I dunno but id like to i was on their website and it didn't say anything about aberdeen gigs. I hope they play soon though cos they are ace and the last time i saw them was their ep release at The Lemon Tree and they were amazing.

From what I hear on the grapevine, Driveblind no longer live in the UK, when they signed to Universal, they moved over to Los Angles. They spent some time touring in the US. I understand they have a producer lined up for their first album, but don't know what dates, or timescale for the recording.

So to answer your question, don't think they will be touring in the Uk until they have recorded the album, so nothing immient, may not even be any dates this year. :-(

Like you guys, seen them live several times, and they are awesome. They are a great example to any aspiring band. If you want to get signed, and have a career in the music business, that is how good you need to be. They got that good, then started trying to get signed, which again, I would say is a good way to go about it

They didn't especially like playing Aberdeen I believe, don't blame them really.

Best of luck to them.

Never did I see Driveblind which makes me wonder what they were like. Methinks I shall find out using the powers of the Internet and maybe my local library!

they are recording their album in London, which will initially be released through Polydor. Anyway, they're back in the UK and are going to be released here before being released in the US.
