Formed in 2005s, The Vogues share a passion for booze, shoes, fags and live performance; their concerts shimmer with an electric atmosphere and a front-man redolent of a young Mick Jagger. <br><br> The sound of The Vogues resonates with influences including the Beatles, The Stones, Kinks, Stone Roses, Blur, Oasis, Suede, The Strokes and the Libertines. <br><br> Yet their songs and image are far from retrospective; mixing soul bass lines, 6O’s garage riffs and a pinch of baggy and glam-rock attitude with contemporary elements. <br><br> The lyrics broach topics including suburban perversions and autobiographical adventures of wild nights. <br><br> Following the great rock’n’’roll tradition, The Vogues line up consists of two electric guitars, bass and drums, lead and backing vocals with occasional sleazy harmonica. <br><br> Gigs in 2006 included Paris, Brussels (supporting DIRTY PRETTY THINGS), Liege and Amsterdam. In 2007 The Vogues will promote their first EP. <br><br>
