(PR) Exolution Entertainment proudly presents Meridian UK - a new venture sponsored by UK Trade & Investment to raise awareness of UK indie bands on tour in America. ROCK SAVE THE QUEEN is the first in the series of international tours and features UK indie rockers Scanners and The Hedrons. The debut tour features two of the UK's brightest post-punk stars - London, England's Scanners and Glasgow, Scotland's The Hedrons, who will be blazing across the West Coast following their SXSW performances in Austin, TX. Of the Scanners, Rock Insider describes their debut album Violence Is Golden, as "ridiculously catchy and deserves all the attention it's getting." The Hedrons are receiving critical acclaim from major British media with Mojo proclaiming them as "self-assured and deliciously energizing... The Hedrons debut is a pedal-to-the-metal affair of great promise," and the NME, who is sponsoring the tour, asserts, "Patti Smith meets Penetration with a dash of early Blondie and a smidging of The Runaways... you have to hear this band."
