The Lykes of Wytch
This is a Major Snagg / Big Sleep 'side project', to create and record mostly high power psychedelic type of material (covers and originals). . . Full Tilt Psychedelia . Just as XTC briefly became The Dukes of Stratosfear, so have Tony and myself become The Lykes of Wytch . . . but probably only briefly . . . well maybe not !
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
A little side project for just one CD's worth of music . . . or maybe more ? I play all the instruments and Tony writes the lyrics (apart from any covers that we decide to do), sings them and assists in the recording and production!
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
No, I used to in a former life ! I prefer the comfort of my little studio;-
'David's multi-coloured psychedelic music workshop'.
Your musical influences
for this project:- The Beatles, The Pretty Things, etc. . . British Whimsical Psychedelia and other bands who dabbled in this genre
What equipment do you use?
Guitars, Basses, Keyboards . . . real instruments recorded in 'real-time'. BUT . . out of necessesity the 'Drums' are mainly programmed from my now pretty ancient Zoom RT123 drum machine or else put together from any realistic 'drum samples' that I happen to come across.
Anything else?
Don't know but keep watching this space . . . it seems that I was born a decade too late :)
