Hey, we're The Purple Lemon Trees. We're from Brighton, a relatively new band who formed at a christmas party in 2005. We're all pretty insane. Handbag is vocalist and does other random stuff, Washie plays guitar and vocals, Stripes plays bass and vocals and Tricky Dicky makes big banging noises on a drum kit for us.
Band/artist history
Handbag, Washie and Stripes all met at a christmas party in 2005. Screaming at each other, they decided to form a band. With a lack of a drummer, they went on the hunt and found one in the form of Tricky Dicky, in a matter of weeks. Soon the guys begun practicing and trying to make a go of PLT. So far its looking good. Lets hope it stays this way or gets better!
