Danny & The Champs Conquer Spain
Friday, 27th January 2012
The Champs' returned from Spain & France last week, having totally rocked the shit out of each venue, debuting some brand new songs along the way.Check out THIS acoustic session they did for Spain's Radio 3. 24 minutes in is a good place to skip to.
The band also appeared on the front page of MSN España. Oh, hang on, what was that title? "The new Springsteen is English" ? Yes, that's definitely what they said. (That'd be Danny then.)You may also like to read some of the reviews, which we bring to you via a handy, 85% accurate, translation tool:-Madrid! Wish you were there?

“there’s always been a sense of a tasteful restraint to the studio albums but unleashed on stage with their raspy vocals and heartland rock and soul, they’re like a power station on steroids.”
“This is a proper old school live album, makes you want to go to a gig”
ROBERT ELMS, BBC LONDON
“songs like This Is Not a Love Song and and Stay True which come at you one after the other; are destined to make ‘new fans’ wonder why these kids aren’t topping the bill at Glastonbury with their magic formula and bittersweet songs.”
