What a year The Rumble Strips have had. From being tipped by all and sundry as one of the most exciting new bands of 2007 the group have stepped up and delivered.

From their explosive shows at SXSW (culminating in Charlie's arrest and jumping bail) to their triumphant headlining of the NME New Music Tour' in May, the band headed into the festival season with an arsenal of songs set to become the soundtrack of the summer.

Last month the band also discovered that their latest single, Girls and Boys in Love', was to feature as the main title-track to the new Simon Pegg starring/David Schwimmer directed film Run Fat Boy Run'.

The band played all the major summer festivals this year including Glastonbury, T in the Park, Bestival & V2007 and will tour the UK fully this Autumn;
