Fat White Family

Touch The Leather, single by Fat White Family to be released 10th March.....

“Rock & roll with the blood slowed to a dark sweetness and just like how it began, with Little Richard, Roy, Jerry Lee - psychotic, monstrous, doomed” - The Quietus

"Champagne Holocaust is an assault of warped fantasies, weirdo blues, guttural garage and drug-addled deviance" - The Fly

"A sleaze infested groove machine banging out taut, sex-electrified jams... Buy it!" - Vice

“The most exciting band in London” - NME

Check out Fat White Family's 'Touch Of Leather', which is taken from their debut album ‘Champagne Holocaust.’

Fat White Family are the greatest young rock band in the UK and this probably extends to the rest of the world as well. What’s that? You want to know more? Christ on callipers, ok, let’s see what we’ve got here then…

It won’t come as news to anyone who has been to one of their regular Slide-In nights at their local pub and HQ, The Queens Head in Brixton, South London but for a band that only really coalesced as the Fat White Family in 2011, the six piece have already got several once-in-a-lifetime/ ‘OMG - were you there?’ gigs under their belt.

The group played their first open mic night in 2009 and honed their sound at Hank Dog’s Easycome, a regular South London folk event but by the time of their first headline gig under their current name in 2011, they’d added a heavier, more psychedelic and electric element to the music. An early fan of these shows was Liam from Trashmouth Records who would eventually put out their awesome Champagne Holocaust album in 2013. This LP – a mix of class war, Communist themed surrealism, odes to auto sex and to sex in autos, calls for full scale insurrection, unabashed sleaze and grooves that will just not let up – has become that old fashioned thing: a word of mouth success. Their second release, the Wet Hot Beef EP (a split with Taman Shud) was released on Xmas day and points towards a viciously bright future for the group.

Fat White Family are about to embark on a UK tour.
