We cover a load of shit, Darkness, Rage, Metallica, fountains of wayne, Zeppelin, Busted. ITS ALL THERE.
We also do a Jazz Quartet (with Simon Moulds - Trumpet) going by the same name, avaliable for coporate events.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Me and Ed always used to sing along to songs in our house room, as much as this pissed people off, we loved it and thought we rocked.
Thats the word for this band. We Rock.
Woody, the bass maestro at all that is funk was hired, Chris knowing him to be a clear legend. The Bassist spot was filled.
We needed a drummer...someone down to earth, able to hold a beat and do mental solo's at the same time, we have now found that man.
Our original drummer was Chris Parker (who's drums and production skills can be heard on our current demos) however the music we play simply wasn't his style, and we went our separate ways.
Ben Sapsford is our new drummer - we hope you guys all give him the love and respect he deserves or we'll set Ed on you like the caged animal he is.
The Band is complete again.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
