Great Scot - It's The Next Oasis

















The Fratellis are dark horses in the Breakthrough Act category.

They slipped in at No2 in the album charts last year with Costello Music without the help of internet or record label hype.

The Scots rockers really want to win – but won’t be able to afford celebratory champagne.

Singer Jon Fratelli said: “We deserve it. We didn’t get hyped like other bands. We just play and give fans what they want.

“We are still skint though – I can just about buy a round. Now we’ve got a nomination I want first-class flights from the record company.”

The Fratellis got their break touring with Kasabian last year. Jon said: “We have friendly rivalry. They say they are like Oasis and we are like The Verve – but we want to be Oasis.

“We met Noel Gallagher at our Earls Court gig. I was drunk and tripped over. My head landed at his toe. He was dancing so I don’t think he noticed.”

But he reckons there won’t be any tour-style antics when they all reunite tonight. He added: “We’re playing Nottingham tomorrow so if we win we’ll have to start behaving.”
