Post War Glamour Girls are four screaming charmers formed in late 2010. Heavy hitting and dry witted, they create songs which swell up and boil over into brooding, thumping masterpieces reminiscent of Tom Waits, Grinderman and ‘Moon and Antarctica-era’ Modest Mouse. Wearing their hearts firmly on their sleeves, PWGG live shows are a gripping affair. The sets are laced with reckless abundance as songs tinker into a clatter and clatter into a roar before collapsing in a proud heap on top of the audience.
The band came to life at the beginning of 2011, with performances at a series of house parties and tiny venues in Leeds, UK. Embracing the city’s strong DIY ethos, Post War Glamour Girls have built up a formidable reputation within the Leeds music scene. Their impressive stage presence saw the band chosen to open the NME/Radio 1 Stage at Reading and Leeds festivals 2012.
A sold out 7” single ‘Ode To Harry Dean/ Spitting Pearls’ was followed by an EP ‘Tragic loss; he had such a lovely house’. In February 2014, they released their first album PiNK FUR.
