ART will meet rock head on when Queen Adreena play Burnley Mechanics at the end of the month.

The highly-acclaimed and occasionally controversial act who have been compared to a hard-edged Cocteau Twins will play the Mechanics on Thursday, October 31.

With two albums behind them -- their latest release, Drink Me came out in August -- the band have toured almost incessantly for the past couple of years building up a large following.

With one reviewer admitting that the band 'scare the living daylights out of me' it promises to be a night to remember at the Mechanics.

Queen Adreena are Katie Jane Garside on vocals, Crispin Gray on guitar, Orson Wajih on bass and Pete Howard on drums.

Tickets priced £5 are available from the Mechanics' box office on 01282 664400.
