Band/artist history
Mr. Dibs was a founder member of legendary space-rock outfit Krel, who gigged extensively in the early nineties, famously supporting Hawkwind on the Electric Teepee Tour in 1992. Spacehead formed in 1994, originally as a solo project, but with great interest in the first cassette release, Mr.Dibs was inspired to put a full band together, and four more cassettes followed. Mr. Dibs and Phil Howard (Cellular Structure, and now PXR-1) gigged the early material as a two-piece with drum loops, eventually recruiting drummer Paul Boers from Holland to record an album for Hawkwind's Emergency Broadcast System, "...Of Star and Time." Phil left the project soon after this, and Dibs, Paul, and new boys, Will Brazier-Smith (guitar), and Gavin Maelstrom (keyboards) recorded the "Anasazi" cassette. A deal with Dead Earnest resulted in the release of a second CD, "In Space We Trust", featuring most of that cassette, and live material recorded supporting Hawkwind in 1997.
This featured for the first time ex-Gong violinist, Graham Clark, who had jammed with the band on several occasions. He focused mainly on guitar in the band, taking over from Will, and still performs with the band occasionally. 1999 saw another line-up change, when Dibs was joined by Craig Dewberry on drums, and Fran Halsall on keyboards, who gigged with Graham for a while before being joined by Martyn Needham from Derby space-rockers Dr. Hasbeen on guitar duties. This line-up recorded an EP, "Escape Velocity Preview", with Neil Mycock from Craig's old band Flaw on extra guitar. (Neil had, in-fact, played a couple of gigs with the band in between Graham's departure and Martyn joining).
2001 saw the band releasing another compilation "Explode Into Space- Inhalations 1998-2000", and work began on a proper studio album, tentatively titled "Escape Velocity". Of course, all things change, and yet another line-up shuffle in 2002 brought Keef Barton in on guitar and keyboards to play the Sonic Rock Solstice near Garstang, with Graham on guitar, and Neil Mycock (the same!) on drum duties. This gig revitalised the band, and waiting in the wings at SRS having done the soundcheck, Robin Julian joined as drummer, performing his first gig at the inaugural Hawkfest in Devon. Some very successful gigs followed, and in early 2003, Mr. Floyd, originally a Krellian, on keyboards.
