Support came from The Lounge Kittens, a British three-piece girl band with soothing cacophonous voices which has earned them comparisons to The Andrew Sisters. By putting themselves on Band Camp and successfully funding six projects via Kickstarter Electric Six has been able to continuously create an ongoing intimate fan experience which has rewarded them with the release and touring of a further thirteen LP’s since their debut. Whilst their commercial success has peaked and the band has seen numerous line-up changes their longevity is down to their ability to reach out to their most devoted fan base and having a strong DIY ethic any new and unknown band should take note of. In 2003, Detroit six-piece, Electric Six, became a household name in the UK with hits from their debut LP, Fire, including “Danger! High Voltage”, “Dance Commander” and lest we forget “Gay Bar”.
