Music Question
|
|
Lots of you on here have a far bigger knowledge of music than me.
In the mid to late 90's I went to a low-key Sunday night gig at The Leadmill in Sheffield with The Longpigs the main act.
The support act were Embassy, who I think were from Kent/SE London. I'd heard one single of theirs previously, Boxcar AM. But there is no trace of them on the internet or YouTube.
Can anyone remember Embassy?

I say duo but my brother who was also at the gig said they were a 3 piece!
Thanks again for finding that flyer for the tour, just wish there was something about them on the internet, everything else seems to be on there!

Oh well I never knew it was a duo
Try asking the question on the Longpigs Facebook group, someone might have been there

Excellent, that flyer has the gig on it, a Sunday at The Leadmill. That's progress, I failed to find any mention of the gig myself.
The band was a two-piece so not the Embassy that you found after that.

Just checked and they look to be a Swedish band, not the ones I saw 👍
