Though their members have barely turned 18, DAMN SHAMES are quickly developing a reputation as Edinburgh’s best young guitar band. They could be one of the most exciting things anywhere in the UK. Damn Shames throw their colossal amount of comic energy around the stage, cackhandedly leaping and landing even worse. Drawing on a massive set of influences that only teenagers could find enough time to listen to, whilst holding down their very own peculiar disco groove, they instantly gain loyalty from everyone who sees them.
Already masters of cheeky ad lib, singers Simon and Matt don’t mind throwing the banter that usually goes on between songs into the songs themselves. The fact that they’re playing some of the most exciting music to grace the capital’s stages could almost be an aside. It seems unfair that Damn Shames are this good this young… surely they should need time to mature? Whatever they do go on to become: Damn Shames are a stunning act right now.
