The video for “El Caminos…” features
five 11 year old female Grandaddy impersonators resplendent
in
stick-on beards and trucker caps. The girls scissor-kick
their way through the tune whilst Grandaddy wile away the
hours on a cruise oblivious to the chaos the girls are causing
in their absence.
Grandaddy played and experienced their first Glastonbury
and loved it. They spent two days taking in the madness and
managed to get drummer Aaron onstage with the Polyphonic
Spree, clad in a red robe.
Now, the band head off to the States for the first leg of
a US tour and then back to Europe to make more friends at
the Lowlands and Pukkelpop festivals (amongst others).
They then return to the UK for warm-up
shows at Nottingham’s Rescue Rooms on the 20th August and Stoke Sugarmill on 21st
August before playing Reading and Leeds Festivals on 22nd
and 24th August respectively.
Grandaddy also squeeze in a show on the 23rd August at the
Edinburgh Liquid Rooms.
Having played several shows in an arm sling and sitting
down, guitarist Jim Fairchild is now fully recovered after
his recent collision with an 18-wheeler production truck.
(Rumour has it the truck is still feeling a little off-colour).
