1990s to TOUR US May through June!!! 01 Apr 2009


Glasgow's 1990s have just released their second album "Kicks" on Rough Trade.

Rolling Stone gave it 3 1/2 stars: 'On their second disc, the trio pump out tightly wound,
Seventies-sounding punk with a dozen near-perfect tunes about American pastimes such
as smoking pot on a lazy afternoon ("Vondelpark"), popping Xanax ("Kickstrasse") and moving
to California to enroll in Scientology ("Everybody Please Relax").'


Now, life may just imitate art for the trio when they hit our shores for a US tour that starts
in late May on the east coast, and takes them across the country through mid June!

1990s are now: Jackie McKeown (vocals on most songs, guitars),
Dino Bardot (bass, vocals on two songs), and Michael McGaughrin (drums
and vocals on 4 songs)

Check out the MP3 for "The Box" which got a 4 star track review from Rolling Stone:
