Tuesday for me on Hive means three tune tuesday...
It's Tuesday and of course that means it's inspiration time!!
This is a local band who I have been meaning to make a ttt about for a few weeks.
In fact ever since I heard them on talksport of all places. The breakfast show, if you know Coisty then you know he is a huge music fan.
Well Raith Rovers our local football team from Kirkcaldy were in the playoff against Ross County to get into the Scottish Premiership.
A step too far it turned out, but it reintroduced me to this band.
So a wee tribute to Shambolics coming up!
It is Tuesday and that of course means that it's #ttt or #threetunetuesday and so it's time to share some tunes with you!
@ablaze started #ttt 163 weeks ago! Go check out what it is all about on his last post Aoife Nessa Frances for Three Tune Tuesday - Week 163 - win 12 HBI
Do go support @ablaze as without him we would not have this mental fun musical activity that you can win HSBI from! I am happy to be one of the TWELVE sponsors and it is kinda fun checking out music from all over this global village of ours!
Long live #ttt 😁🎼 and #threetunetuesday
Shambolics
Choose Fife
Choose Shambolics
Choose Dreams, Schemes & Young Teams
Kicking off with one for @deraaa @coquicoin and @ifarmgirl ....
At the 20 second mark you will hear a famous phrase from me that led to KUTA!
Shambolics - Universal Credit
They say some of their influences are Oasis and The Beatles and they are a little rough around the edges.
Universal Credit is the dole or what used to be called UB40 (yes that is where they got their name from).
If you are unemployed you can get Universal Credit (some people do), so this song is taking the piss out of the whole setup.
Great song to kick us off from their debut album.
Shambolics - Never Be Mine
Although they are from Kirkcaldy in Fife, they are now based in Glasgow which of course has a much bigger music scene.
What you do find is that their videos do have many outdoor locations from Glasgow as indeed Never Be Mine does.
I love upbeat the tune is, even if the lyrics might not be!
Shambolics - Losing Your Mind
The video, well the pictures are of Scotland life back in the day, and brings back memories!
Some say I lost my mind a long time ago!
This is a great band and I would love to see them go all the way.
Bonus Tune & Interview
This was the talksport interview with Coisty I mentioned and they also play their title song from their debut album
Dreams, schemes and young teams
Who says I only play golden oldies!
I reposted their post on Twitter and they reposted mine... Engagement it does not matter who you are, it is what social media is about ... and yes to me Hive is social media!
I hope that you enjoyed these Shambolic tunes.
Which was your favourite (if any) ?
Note: The three YouTube videos that I have shared are not owned by me, I am simply spreading great music on Hive.
I wish that you all have a brilliant rest of your week, and until we meet again enjoy your tunes 🎶🎵🎶
