Call the Doctor

Duration:
2 hours
First broadcast:
Monday 28 May 2012

There is a severe case of the guitar pops in the studio this evening, best Call The Doctor then!

Call The Doctor came to being after lead singer Patti Aberhart moved from New Zealand to the UK back in 2008, met Robert Hallworth, Chris Davis and Jordan Cook, and with a mutual love of danceable dirty guitars created what you will hear tonight.

Their debut album Hands Will Shake is released 30th July on Glasstone Records and they are at the start of a UK tour. Tonight however, they are playing live for you and the clever Mr Riley who booked em.
