Call The Doctor - Louisiana



My first chance to see Call The Doctor arrived on Wednesday as I caught them at Louisiana. Arriving early we managed to sit down with lead singer Patti (AKA Rachel) and guitarist Rob. Both looked nervous as they got set to take the stage for only their third gig. Arriving early certainly had its perks as the band dished out free CDs and badges, other bands take note, free stuff is the quick way to any Yorkshireman's heart. I guess I should expect no less from the man who was involved with the "Best Promoted Radio Show" at university.

There was certainly a large crowd there for CTD and they will certainly have been impressed by Patti's stage presence. Sounding like a cross between Yeah Yeah Yeahs and PJ Harvey they have a strong sound that is sure to win them plenty of followers. They are next appearing in Bluecat in Machester on 7th March, The Shed, Leicester on the 8th March and Sheffield at Harley on the 9th March.

They haven't signed to anyone yet. Send them a message via MySpace and I'm sure they'd love to hear from you. http://www.myspace.com/ctdoctor
