The Codeine Velvet Band!

Fans of the Fratellis won't have to wait much longer for new music (from at least one of the band's members). Jon (Lawler) Fratelli had teamed up with Lou Hickey to form the Codeine Velvet Club and will be releasing their first album December 28 in the US. 

Lawler looking to keep himself busy between touring and the next Fratellis' album decided to take up this side project.  For those unfamiliar with Lou Hickey, she has described her previous work as "pop cabaret bitchy jazz."

The debut single "Vanity Kills" features the jazzy, big bandness, fans of Hickey will be familiar with, with a touch of the rollicking rock of the Fratellis. They will be touring all over the United Kingdom throughout the autumn and hopefully extending their tour once the album releases worldwide.
