Biography
They originate from the industrial town of Immingham - about 6 miles (10 km) north-west from Grimsby, on the east coast of northern England. The group were originally formed under the name of Low Culture in 2010 and changed their name to Ming City Rockers - inspired by The Clash song Clash City Rockers - two years later. They released their début single Chic & The Motherfuckers in July 2013.
They were featured in Q Magazine's Who? What? Where? Why? series in April 2014. They have also supported - and been championed by - the band Palma Violets.
Ming City Rockers' debut and self-titled studio album was released on 15 September 2014. Chic and The Motherfuckers, I Wanna Get Outta Here But I Can't Take You Anywhere and Rosetta were recorded at Yellow Arch Studios in Sheffield in February 2013. The rest of the album was recorded in September 2013 at Tesla Studios, also in Sheffield.
Their second album, Lemon, recorded and produced by Steve Albini, was released on 1st April 2016. After the release of the album, Ramona left the band and was replaced by Jakki Walsh, who returned for a short period before leaving again, when Ramona once again became bassist.
