BETTE DAVIS AND THE BALCONETTES

	'Surf Surf, Kill Kill' Ace single from Mancunion fuzzy scuzzy female shouty bunch. This record magnificently merges the groove of a lo-fi surf instrumental with the raw energy of their punky tribal cacophony. Great! Released 12.10.98.	DAMGOOD157
		7" single £2.50
	'Shergar' When the Melody Maker called Bette Davis & The Balconettes 'the coolest boy grrl punk band in the world' we had to admit they'd got it right for once. This 7" has two tracks lifted from their riotous Peel session recorded in the Spring of 1997. Released 27.10.97.	DAMGOOD136
		7" single £2.50

From Manchester they burst onto the scene in late 1996 with their first single Paul Power T-shirt on Baby Boom records, Melody Maker gave it Single of the Week and Everett True called them ‘the coolest boy grrl punk band in the world’. John Peel loved them too playing all their stuff over and over again.

Bette Davis and the Balconettes We did two singles Shergar and Surf Surf Kill Kill. They also did another single on Baby Boom too.

I think they split up in late 98 after trying to record another single and having a big bust up.

They were a truly great live band, never a dull moment.
