The Troubadours, an English rock ensemble hailing from Liverpool, Runcorn, and Wigan, emerged in 2005 under the leadership of Mark Frith and Johnny Molyneux. Their distinctive sound fuses 1950s rockabilly with 1960s garage and blues, drawing inspiration from legends like The Rolling Stones and The Byrds. Their debut single, "Gimme Love," released in 2007, achieved notable success in Japan, spending three months atop the MTV Japan video chart. After a brief hiatus in 2009, the band reunited in 2011, continuing to captivate audiences with their classic British songwriting and dynamic performances.
