Call The Glam Rock Cops

Amazing Baby

Call the Glam Rock cops Amazing Baby are on the loose. Like refugees from Velvet Goldmine with a Bolan fixation the Brooklyn quartet are single handedly rehabilitating the unfairly maligned genre to it’s rightful place at the cutting edge of the music scene.

If Ziggy had sacked the Spiders from Mars and hooked up with Roxy Music to cover the hits of T-Rex then Amazing Baby would be the tribute band.

They are currently giving away an EP for free on their website so go download and dig out your platform soles (or ask your parents to dig their old ones out of the loft) glitter, feather boas and all in one metallic cat suits and party like it’s 1972.

Amazing Baby have been fitted up for size for Top Of The Pops in a uniform supplied by the glam rock cops.
