[title]You Can Do Anything[/title] is the third album from cosmic scousers The Zutons. Yet another dose of ska'd up indie rock from the Liverpool five-piece, and one that manages to sound even more assured and soulful than their 2006 album 'Tired Of Hanging Around'. Includes the single 'Always Right Behind You'.

1. Harder and Harder
2. Dirty Rat
3. What's Your Problem
4. You Could Make The Four Walls Cry
5. Family Of Leeches
6. Don't Get Caught
7. Bumbag
8. Always Right Behind You
9. Put A Little Aside
10. Freak
11. Give Me A Reason
12. Little Red Door

Too bad Tired Of Hanging Around never got released in the US. I actually thought it was a better album than Who Killed The Zutons.

Ringo Starr hooks up with The Zutons

Feb 21, 2008

The Zutons had a chance encounter with Ringo Starr in Los Angeles, and gave the Beatle a sneak preview of their new songs.

Starr was outside Sunset Sound Studios, where The Zutons are recording their third album, when the band’s saxophone player Abi Harding spotted him.

She explained: “I was sitting outside the studio when my jaw dropped ‘cause Ringo had just pulled up in front of me. I was proper shocked and ran over to him and gave him a big hug.”

The group invited the star in and gave him a preview of some of their new songs.

Harding added: “He came in and talked to us a bit and had a listen to a couple of our songs that he seemed to really like. He said he liked the way I played sax so I was made up all day.”

Set for a summer album release, The Zutons are currently recording with legendary producer George Drakoulias. The record will be the follow-up to 2006's 'Tired Of Hanging Around'.

Remember when the major labels used to cultivate careers, and stood by their artists over the long haul?

Neither do I.

The Zutons dropped by record label

Jan 14, 2009

The Zutons have been dropped by their record label.

Despite writing one of the decade's best-selling songs in 'Valerie' (a hit for them in 2006, and famously covered by Amy Winehouse and Mark Ronson in 2007), the Liverpool band have parted company with Deltasonic, an imprint of Sony BMG.

Their last single, 'What's Your Problem', failed to chart, plus the band's third album, 'You Can Do Anything', sold disappointingly. An NME review of the album awarded the band four out of 10, declaring that their "hitmaking days are over".

In July frontman Dave McCabe told the Daily Star that he was disappointed with the way the album had been received.

"I wanted it to go to Number One and sell millions. I'm gutted," he said. "I just can't understand it - maybe it's just our time to fall out of favour, but we'll just keep gigging. That's what we love doing the most."

The Zutons have so far refused to comment on their future.
