The Fratellis are one of those bands that I've heard of, but couldn't name any of their songs.  So I've just done some Googling and found out the following:

 - it's a common misconception that they're named after the Goonies characters - but they've denied this.  They're named after their bassist, Barry Fratelli.

 - they're from Glasgow

 - they've only been together for about 18 months.

I don't recognise the singles' titles, but I'm sure I would know them if I heard them.


Oh, and I've spoken to someone else who heard the same announcement on Radio 1 this morning.  He also took it to mean that The Who + The Fratellis will be playing TOGETHER.
