Switzerland is not a country normally renowned for its edgy alternative music scene. However, all that is set to change if Velvet Two Stripes have their way.

Consisting of sisters Sophie, Sara, and co-conspirator Franca, Velvet Two Stripes create a visceral sleazy psych-blues riffing musical avalanche that has seen them compared to the likes of The Dead Weather, Janis Joplin, and even Jimi Hendrix!

The trio are set to play a number of select UK shows ahead of the release of their debut UK EP Fire on 20th May.

Fire EP Track List:
1. Fire
2. Cloud Seven
3. Hellhound
4. Dead Man

The trio will also be playing a handful of dates over here, including The Great Escape Festival. Dates are:
May

16th, The Great Escape Festival, Brighton
16th (second show), Avondale House, Southampton
18th, The Great Escape Festival, Brighton
August
25th, Damn Dead Circus Festival, Essex
