COVENTRY band The Satin Dolls are set for stardom as they release their debut album Illuminati and prepare to open this summer’s Coventry Godiva festival.
They performed a 72-date tour in 2007, supporting the Feeling, the Specials, the Stranglers and the Subways, and were voted the best unsigned female lead rock band in the UK.
As one of only four bands selected to perform on the main stage, the foursome can’t wait to rock their home town.
Lead singer Julie Ann Burrows, said: “What we wanted more than anything was to perform at the Godiva Festival. I’m very much a Coventry girl and I’m so excited to go on the main stage, open it up and show the city what we have."
She added: “It’s also great because we have a huge young fan base that can’t get into clubs to see us, so we are really pleased we can perform for them.”
The audience can expect an electrifying performance from the band along with distinctive vocals.
Julie said: “We have an energy that really affects people. We love what we do and think the music speaks for itself.
“It’s also great that we’re performing on American Independence Day because a lot of our music is a statement against the system.”
With their increasing exposure and the release of their album, the Satin Dolls are hoping to get the right management soon.
Julie said: “We’re open to offers and there’s been interest. The market is quite saturated with Indie music. It’s time for rock music to come into fruition – it’s coming back round to rock music being embraced again.”
After five years, the band’s music has evolved and their album captures their infectious live energy."
