In twelve short months The Metros have gone from nothing to selling out headline tours across the country, cementing themselves as one of the best bands on the underage circuit, over 500,000 views of their My Space site, and bagging the coveted spot on the MTV Spanking new music tour. Following the success and great demand of the last tour the band will embark on another headline tour in May, including a slot at the Camden Crawl and a date supporting Madness at the Royal Albert Hall for The Teenage Cancer Trust.

The Lippy Peckham upstarts will release single ‘Last of The Lookers’ through 1965 Records on 2nd June. Produced by Baxter Dury, the single includes B-sides Education Pt. 1 and a collaboration with fellow 1965 artist Toddla T ‘Clubhouse Riddim’.
