About Me

Formed in the late 70's by Alan Wilson, the Sharks started as a Rockabilly band, but later moved towards a more psychobilly feel. Steve Whitehouse and Hodge joined in 1982. The band's first album 'Phantom Rockers' was released soon afterwards on Nervous Records. The band later spilt in 1983......
Steve went on to form Frenzy. Alan went on to carve a career as a record producer..... and now owns a label and studio. Hodge could often be found playing in either Frenzy or some of Alan's studio and live projects..... he now resides in Spain.
The Sharks re-formed with Alan Wilson on Guitar/vocals, Gary Day on bass in 1993 and Hodge on drums and released the album 'Recreational Killer' on Cherry Red/Anagram records and the 12" EP 'Bitch Attack' (Vinyl Japan).
In 1995 Steve returned when Gary left to re-join Morrissey. The next album was 'Colour My Flesh' in 1995 - again on Cherry Red/Anagram. Other releases included 'Ruff Stuff' - an album of demos and the vinyl EP 'Sir Psycho' (Fury).
Since then there have been some live albums and other bits and pieces including a 25 track 'Best Of' CD and some DVD appearances. The band still occasionally record, but quit live performances in 1999 - mailnly due to Alan's busy career as a producer. So promoters.... please don't keep asking the band to tour the States as the answer is most definitely; "Thanks but no thanks". It just ain't gonna happen. Well, not in the foreseeable future.
Nowadays, Steve can still be found either playing live or recording with Frenzy. Gary was still with Morrissey the last time anyone looked. Hodge lives in Spain. Alan is a producer and also owns a studio and label and also manages a few other labels for the Cherry Red records group.
