Tuesday for me on Hive means three tune tuesday...
It's Tuesday and of course that means it's inspiration time!!
This is a local band who I have been meaning to make a ttt about for a few weeks.
In fact ever since I heard them on talksport of all places. The breakfast show, if you know Coisty then you know he is a huge music fan.
Well Raith Rovers our local football team from Kirkcaldy were in the playoff against Ross County to get into the Scottish Premiership.
A step too far it turned out, but it reintroduced me to this band.
So a wee tribute to Shambolics coming up!
It is Tuesday and that of course means that it's #ttt or #threetunetuesday and so it's time to share some tunes with you!
@ablaze started #ttt 163 weeks ago! Go check out what it is all about on his last post Aoife Nessa Frances for Three Tune Tuesday - Week 163 - win 12 HBI
Do go support @ablaze as without him we would not have this mental fun musical activity that you can win HSBI from! I am happy to be one of the TWELVE sponsors and it is kinda fun checking out music from all over this global village of ours!
Long live #ttt ๐๐ผ and #threetunetuesday
Shambolics
Choose Fife
Choose Shambolics
Choose Dreams, Schemes & Young Teams
Kicking off with one for @deraaa @coquicoin and @ifarmgirl ....
At the 20 second mark you will hear a famous phrase from me that led to KUTA!
Shambolics - Universal Credit
They say some of their influences are Oasis and The Beatles and they are a little rough around the edges.
Universal Credit is the dole or what used to be called UB40 (yes that is where they got their name from).
If you are unemployed you can get Universal Credit (some people do), so this song is taking the piss out of the whole setup.
Great song to kick us off from their debut album.
Shambolics - Never Be Mine
Although they are from Kirkcaldy in Fife, they are now based in Glasgow which of course has a much bigger music scene.
What you do find is that their videos do have many outdoor locations from Glasgow as indeed Never Be Mine does.
I love upbeat the tune is, even if the lyrics might not be!
Shambolics - Losing Your Mind
The video, well the pictures are of Scotland life back in the day, and brings back memories!
Some say I lost my mind a long time ago!
This is a great band and I would love to see them go all the way.
Bonus Tune & Interview
This was the talksport interview with Coisty I mentioned and they also play their title song from their debut album
Dreams, schemes and young teams
Who says I only play golden oldies!
I reposted their post on Twitter and they reposted mine... Engagement it does not matter who you are, it is what social media is about ... and yes to me Hive is social media!
I hope that you enjoyed these Shambolic tunes.
Which was your favourite (if any) ?
Note: The three YouTube videos that I have shared are not owned by me, I am simply spreading great music on Hive.
I wish that you all have a brilliant rest of your week, and until we meet again enjoy your tunes ๐ถ๐ต๐ถ

Universal Credit really hits home to the state of current, most enjoyable new band actually singing about what they see, very similar to bands they enjoyed.
Dreams, schemes and young teams sounds spot on, a band to follow into the future. Perhaps interview at the end stole the show....
@tipu curate
Upvoted ๐ (Mana: 65/75) Liquid rewards.
You nailed it, the picsand backdrops they use in alot of their songs are reminiscent from the 70s and 80s and even earlier, so yes similar eras to the bands that influenced them Joan.
The interview was great, the Scottish interviewed is Ally McCoist and absolute Scottish and Rangers football legend.
Good to hear what is being presented up North, not much airplay of newly formed bands of late over here except local.
Jeje, Super Ed!
This is the first time I've listened to Shambolic, and of the three tunes, I liked Never Be Mine the most.
Yes I was sure nobody will have heard of Shambolic, and I am glad you liked one Super Eli ๐
You know how I love to respond to your tunes with all focus so I apologise for only replying now.
First song! Ha! Okay... I am laughing but then it is catchy. I like it... really. LMAO. Guy is angry he maintained his 'Steeze'...
Not so upbeat at all.. the lyrics of the second one. And stay all day in bed? I know a certain old wizard that does that often...๐... I love the outdoorsy theme... it is really cool
Jesus!!! What is this third song? It is soooooo me. Melachonlic vibes. So going into my playlists. How do you find these guys?!!! I love the third track. Fuck me... It is so tugging at my heart strings and heartbreaking... Wow!
I barely heard a word they said. I can't get that accent at all๐คฃ
But the song... Why does it feel like they are talking to me? Such vibrant and 'young' lyrics...
My favourite is a tie Eddie.
Losing Your Mind and Dreams, Schemes and Young Teams. I like this two a lot.
You know the third track was so you Deraa!
As for accents, they are from the town I live in now, so the real ones speak like that hehe.
Yes Universal Credit made me laugh as it is so true, but the second one I choose because of the outdoor shots, well one reason.
I was just chuffed to find some new music and finding them from this town made it all the sweeter.
No apologies ever needed you knwo that, thank you for yout wonderful reply. It makes me listen to them again while I reply to your reply, wise old wizard indeed ๐ค
Your thumbs need to burn some fat ๐๐
Those are nice picks. The Songs are really cool too
Yeah good tunes and great new local band.
Those guys are pretty good, I hadn't heard of them before. And most certainly didn't know UB40 came from! They may be a little rough around the edges but that's what makes them good. How long have they been producing music?
Yeah I would have been surprised if you had. It is only this year that they seem to have been making waves. I think abuot three years they have been together producing music.
Aye, there is a fair few Glasgow places in the second one!
Hehe there sure is!
Okay, this is my first time hearing of Shambolics, I loved their songs, thanks for sharing.
Popped in from Dreemport, always an awesome #dreemerforlife.
Yes new to ne too Amie!
Nice tunes, great choice @tengolotodo
#dreemerforlife
Glad you enjoyed and thanks for stopping by
You're welcome
Hey, awesome stuff! Despite the lyrics, I really, really enjoyed Never Be Mine. All great tunes!
Yeah a fun find I think. Never Be Mine is cracking, but yes the lyrincs ... nuff said!
First time hearing about Shambolicsโฆ Im going to definitely add one or two of these to my playlist
Always good hearing new bands, oh Scottish music on your playlist ... who knew! I love it though ๐
That's some kickass music, Tito Ed, especially the first one which kicks the arse ๐ but I love it!
I've not been to X for months but it's good you are getting engagements there.
Yeah when he said Can't Be Arsed I had to tag you ๐คฃ
Oh Rangers and crypto will mean I always pop into X from time to time, although not like I used to.
And I thank you for that so feel free to tag me๐
Oh yes, you can't miss anything about the Rangers hehe.
