After over ten years Babyshambles are back
It took twelve years, but now i Babyshambles are back with a new single titled “Dandy Hooligan” which was presented last night live for the first time at White Rock Studios in Hastings, Great Britain, in the English band’s first concert for eleven years now.
Pete Doherty
explained the song this way: “It’s a well-crafted and elegantly crafted reggae-ska-pop number… with a sweet melody to accompany with your sharp walking stick. Among the ‘shambles’ it is said to be a tribute to a legendary detractor of the National Front.”
“Dandy Hooligan”
is loosely based on the adventures of
Bob Morris
collaborator of
Babyshambles
who served in the anti-Nazi ranks for many years. Morris stars in the official music video, filmed by
Roger Sargent
in London’s Soho district.
The single was recorded in Normandy and Manchester earlier this month, it was produced by
Mike Moore
and mixed by
Ross Orton
in Sheffield. THE
