Unsigned Indie / Rock band from the Worksop / Chesterfield area, UK.Band/artist history
The band was originaly formed in 1998 by Matt(Lead Guitar) and Lee(Lead Vocals) as a four piece. It wasn't for around 8 months or so that the band settles on their third Drummer Will. The band stayed pretty much the same for the next six year with the exception of an added keyboard player for a short time. It was the beginning of 2004 the the bass player Steve decided to leave the band due to other commitments in his life. It wasn't long before the band discovered an outstanding self tought bass player by the name of Dru. Although only playing for a year Dru was already an outstanding player and easily filled the void left by the recent departure. This brings us to the band as they are today - Lee Hodgkiss - Vocals + Guitar, Matt Liddy - Guitar, Dru Berrisford - Bass Guitar and Will Shemilt - DrumsHave you performed in front of an audience?Yes, we've been a gigging band for around seven years now. We've played at just about every type of venue from Working Mens Clubs to Theaters and festivals. Our regular venue at the moment is 'The Old Ship' in Worksop, Nottinghamshire.
