Rockers shake it up

COUNTRY trash punk rockers The Bosshoss are heading to Manchester to drum up support for their new album “Shake and Shout”.

The Mississippi seven piece will play Night and Day, Oldham Street, tonight. The lads have made their name combining their own classic tracks with a sprinkling of covers from the likes of Britney, Outkast and Burt Bacharach.

Within the space of three years the band have gone from gigs in bars to sell out shows in front of 8,000 fans.
