Scarlet Harlots make their stand against racism
3:50pm Wednesday 3rd June 2009
BIRMINGHAM band Scarlet Harlots are getting set for a show to celebrate cultural diversity in the Midlands.
The edgy but accessible band who mix fast basslines with punk guitars are headlining the first Love Music Hate Racism (LMHR) event in the region at the Civic Bar, Wolverhampton, on Saturday June 13.
Scarlet Harlots are among a growing number of performers including famous names like David Grey, Shane McGowan and Doves who support LMHR, which aims to use music to make a stand against racist politics.
Support at the Civic Bar gig comes from Graham Parsnip Torture Think Tank, tickets cost £6 and are available from Midland Box Office by calling 0870 320 7000.
