Franz Ferdinand

Franz Ferdinand

In tight trousers and polyester shirts, Franz Ferdinand opened the gig at the Brixton Academy with Michael. High energy and tight, quirky guitar licks throughout the show, the crowd loved every minute of it.

According to the story over on Domino Records, the band formed only a few years ago in 2001, Bob the Bassist didn't even play before that year, Nick the guitarist is a clasically trained pianist and double bassist and Paul the drummer started out in the band playing guitar.

These boys should be big Stateside, if they're not already. Let the British Invasion begin again.
