DUTCH UNCLES February UK Tour Nears

Who likes dancing? Duncan likes dancing… ‘Flexxin’ is the band’s most inspired pop moment yet and was written after sharing the bill with Prince at 2011’s Hop Farm. It’s an exercise in character writing, telling tales of sexual indiscretions, and has been a mainstay of 6 Music’s A-list in recent weeks. ‘Flexxin’ taken from their third album ‘Out Of Touch In The Wild’ (Memphis Industries) and is featured on Hype Machine
