McKinney - Press Release, May 2004

NEW BAND, NEW SINGLE, NEW ALBUM….

'ballsy grrl-rock has hit quite a lull of late. Sassy Brit Packers McKinney’s irresistible femme fatale Marc Ash looks more than capable of sorting that out.' - Rick Martin, NME

Manchester-based rockers McKinney are set to unleash their debut single ‘Surreal’ on June 28 th. Replete with screeching BRMC-esque guitars, pounding drums and seductive vocals, it’s an edgy first taste of a tune-packed debut album 'Me Me Me'.

With only a handful of gigs to their name, McKinney and their fuzzy pop-rock have found favour with many unsuspecting audiences and promoters. If you fancy a contemporary take on early Blondie, with knowing winks to Siouxsie And The Banshees and Gang Of Four, then be down at the front at the next gig….
