Vigo Thieves
Vigo Thieves are a four piece indie rock band from Wishaw, near Glasgow. They have stated Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, The Strokes, Oasis and The Stone Roses as their main influences. The band were formed in late 2008 where they started rehearsing in a large factory in Bellshill.

The band have just finished some new recordings at one of the UK’s biggest studios, CaVa in Glasgow. They band have worked hard with legendary pro- ducer Brian McNeil who played keyboard for 80’s sensation China Crisis and has worked with major acts from Belle and Sebastian, Simple Minds and Biffy Clyro.

Simon Williams, the man who signed Keane and Coldplay, has likened Vigo Thieves to the next Glasvegas and New York rockers The Strokes, and has been so impressed that he is keeping tabs on the boys for the future.

Their first single on Little Big Shot Records, 'Won't You Be Mine', will be released on November 16th and all proceeds of the single are being donated to The Rangers Football Club Youth Setup. The hit single has also received serious airplay on major radio stations and was featured on SKY TV’s Soccer AM.

In the lead up to the single being released Vigo Thieves were invited on tour with The Twang, playing sold out shows at the O2 Academy in Liverpool and The Leadmill in Sheffield. The Thieves have also shared the bill with Little Comets, Sergeant and american outfit Delta Spirit.
