Anyone know any good current UK garage bands?

[TylerM]

Hi All,

Am tired of listening to awesome American garage that I can't afford to go and see (or more likely, has already stopped touring).

Saw King Khan and the Shrines the other day up in London, and had TOOO much fun, psych-soul-garage that just made me dance like happyfuntimes. However, anything garagey, either on the punkier side (oblivian stylie) or the more chilled side, would be welcome. 

Oh, and btw, this is my first post, just joined the community - names Tyler, 26 from Sunbury.

Nice to meet y'all ,

Tyler

This was filmed last weekend at the Creeping Ivies' album launch in Dundee.

We're based in the North East - been rehearsing since last year. Done a couple of gigs this year. So far we play about 20 odd Nugget-y gems, and have 7 or 8 original numbers, too. No recordings done yet other than mics left running in rehearsals, but we're planning on doing some studio recordings for a self-financed 7" or something towards the end of the year, once we've got some decent stage-time under our belts.
