The Vaselines
Uncut Arena
Sunday 19th July, 2009Formed in 1986 and disbanded in 1990, Glaswegians The Vaselines are coming to Latitude in what is one of only a handful of shows the recently reformed band are doing. Though popular in their native country it was super-fan Kurt Cobain who helped get them worldwide acclaim by covering songs, ‘Molly’s Lips’, ‘Son Of A Gun’ and ‘Jesus Doesn’t Want Me For A Sunbeam’. Eugene Kelly and Frances McKee reformed last year to audiences with their folky punk-garage sound.
Tongue-in-cheek references in the lyrics and grungy guitars bring us back to those summers of the late 80s and give the young generation a chance to hear the music that inspired one of rock’s greatest icons.
