We are proud to announce the return to the stage for one of Britain's greatest ever rock and roll bands: The Godfathers.
The original line-up of Peter and Chris Coyne reunited with Mike Gibson, Kris Dollimore and George Mazur will play the 1st UK concert in 19 years for their traditional 'Saint Valentine's Day Massacre' on February 14th 2008 at The Forum, Kentish Town, London.
More selected European dates are also being announced. The reunion will see The Godfathers claim back their international status while promoting the expanded reissue of their independent debut album 'Hit By Hit], now a double CD set, which will be available in February on the band's Corporate Image label.
Formed in 1985, The Godfathers earned a reputation for their no-holds barred live shows and electrifying brand of primal rock 'n' roll while touring extensively the UK, Europe and the USA. After acclaimed independent single releases produced by Vic Maile and collected on debut album Hit By Hit they signed to Epic Records in 1987, releasing a string of great singles from their acclaimed international best selling albums, Birth, School, Work, Death and More Songs About Love and Hate. Pioneering their own brand of guitar-driven alternative rock sound, they laid the foundations for the Brit Pop rock resurgence of the nineties. Rumours of a return to the stage for their traditional Saint Valentine's Day Massacre concert in London have kept their faithful followers waiting for decades.
