Houston 500 Release Not So Festive Single
agibbons by Anthony Gibbons October 29th, 2003

Houston 500 are to release ‘Queen Of The Crackwhores’ as their debut single for Global Warming Records.

Saffron Walden’s finest, who signed their deal at Manchester’s ‘In The City’ event, release the not so festive single on December 1st. The single is backed by two new tracks, ‘Darkside’ and ‘Head Down’, the latter of which continues the not so festive theme by exploring pornography.

Houston 500 are soon to be heading to the USA for a string of dates thanks to their friendship with an Arizona promoter. The dates are:

  • November 6 Static Scottsdale, all Arizona
  • November 7 The Sets, Tempe
  • November 10 Freedom, Tempe

In addition, Houston 500 will be playing a launch gig for ‘...Crackwhores’ at the Boat Race, Cambridge, on Monday December 1st. Tickets cost £6 and everyone who attends will receive a free copy of the single.
