Madison who??? Help...

Whilst in the bath last night (not sure what time except to say that The Family Man had just started on the telly) I was listening to Radio 1 and they played a track by a band called Madison something or other...a melodic rock tune, very impressive...however I missed the second word because as the DJ said it I pumped and it distracted me...

the word sounded like "strange" or "page" or "strings"...can anyone help?

Cheers...

'ello,

I'm sure there was a band called Madison Avenue a few years back - from memory they were a melodic rock sounding band......

Do I win a prize if I'm right ?

Ian.

I FOUND IT...after a bit of detective work on the website I found out that the band is called Madison Strays...sorry Ian, you were way out...you can download the track on www.madisonstrays.com as it probably won't be available over here given that I think they are American and unsigned...awesome, highly recommended!!!!!
