MALIBU STACEY Debut Album and UK Tour

Debut Album 'On Heat' released: Monday 12th July (Townshend Records/Universal). An album which could be THE Summer Album of 2004, as it is literally overflowing with phenomenal rockin' riffs and lyrics, a 10song rollercoaster of non-stop grab-you-by-the-balls Rock). The Band will be appearing across the UK throughout the summer (dates to be announced soon), with a series of special Pre-Album release gigs. See here for more info.

Prepare for it to be CHILLI In May 2004

Chilli choose the ground between rock and pop, blues and folk, and have their own unique style. At the end of the day there are no gimmicks, just good music. And that can't be a bad thing.

The Casbah Club - Here's to the Future !

A cracking debut tour in April, which was met with overwhelming postive responses, and the 5 guys getting on like a house on fire, bodes well for the long-term future of The Casbah Club.
