The NEW Single! The Wurzels - Ruby
To get a taste of The Wurzels forthcoming album, 'A Load More Bullocks', the lads have
chosen the anthemic 'Ruby' as their next single.
Made famous by
The Kaiser Chiefs (Leeds own version of The Wurzels) this song really
got the crowd going at a recent gig in Bristol!

The single is released on JUNE 21st.

There's now more cider in the jar!
The government has dropped plans for a 10% tax rise on cider following fierce opposition to the move, and with Parliament dissolved there was insufficient time to squeeze the law through.
The Tories and Lib Dems welcomed the cider move but Labour say it will be re-introduced if they are re-elected.

"Here in the West Country cider is close to our
hearts and if we, through our 'moo-sic' and association with cider, helped bring this campaign to a cider-head, then I think we all deserve another pint!"
The Wurzels - The peoples band!

I am a Cider Drinker for Sport Relief...
Following calls, and a Facebook campaign, to get The Wurzels' 'I am a Cider Drinker' to number 1, the band have announced that they will be donating their royalties from the sale of 'I am a Cider Drinker' from their Top Of The Crops album to Sport Relief.

'I am a Cider Drinker' on Amazon

'I am a Cider Drinker' on itunes

(NB this applies to the version from Top Of The Crops - as The Wurzels own the rights to this recording)

Wurzels react to the cider tax hike...
"Having just heard the news we are all very upset that Scrumpy Cider, being one of the few pleasures that we cherish down here on the farm in the West Country, is being hit by such a tax rise.

We all realise that, in these current times, we have to tighten the string on our trousers but we must admit that having to cut down on this local favourite leaves us feeling that we are being unfairly penalised, and we'll tell him something, he won't be the Darling bud of our May.

We would like to offer our 50 years of experience of Cider drinking, and of playing within a cider community, to the government in an advisory capacity and the public can be assured that we would obviously register our interests in Cider before any lobbying commenced to avoid accusations of in-cider dealing."
- Tom Banner and Pete Budd, The Wurzels
