Brigadier Ambrose - Current Activity

Current Activity

A gig at Alan McGee's seminal The Queen Is Dead clubnight at London's Borderline venue in December 2008 had to be cancelled due to an injury to drummer Karl Butler. Despite receiving continual offers, the band never played live again - their final gig being at Club Fandango's 229 in London in September 2008.

The band finally released their debut album Fuzzo on CD and digital download in February 2010. The album was in the longlist for 2010's Mercury Music Prize but did not make the final shortlist.

There are no plans for new Brigadier Ambrose releases, though the 2007 recording Jesus Christ, Meet A Wisher Hat and an out-take of Fuzzo's Chatham Hill were made available as a free download for charity through the arts organisation Medway Eyes in 2010 and 2011 respectively.
