Sidecar Kisses have just a few singles under their belt so far but they have already been showered with critical acclaim by top UK magazines. The four members of 'grunged-up art rock' band Sidecar Kisses have put together a glamorous musical force to be reckoned with. Their dual close harmony vocals courtesy of Rhydian Davies and Ritzy Bryan and roaring buzz-saw guitars are influenced by the alt-rock American sounds of The Pixies and Sonic Youth, mixed with a healthy influence of British new wave and post punk.

Supporting Sidecar Kisses on the night will be local band Retrophytes. Although relatively new to the scene, Retropythes are already one of Malta's most sought after live bands. Their elaborate instrumentations and bold songwriting have been compared to the likes of Muse, Tool and Queens of the Stone Age amongst others.

DJ Zickler will be spinning indie tunes before and after the gig.

Tickets at Lm3.50 are available from Anthony D'Amato in Valletta, Exit in Valletta and Paola, Miss Sixty in Sliema and PrintXPress at the University of Malta in tal-Qroqq. Tickets at the door cost Lm4.
