Rory MacDonald - Guitars
Rik Brearly - Bass
Thom Dowse - Drums
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
We used to be quite an event in the Leeds music scene, but as recently we've all headed off to various halls of learning across the UK we now only play infrequently. The crowning show of all shows was probably the Chapel Allerton battle of the bands when, despite power failures and any number of other problems we went on to sweep the competition away with a rough flick of our funky towel.
Your musical influences
We're heavily influenced by the blues rock legends of Cream, Dire Straits and Hendrix together with the Funky feel of folks like the Average White Band, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Mowtown classics
