About Me |
|
| First Band the new beatles then various punk bands before joining alternative TV in 1976, Played Bass on the first 3 ATV Singles. Left to play guitar and join the convent nuns and various other bands like the baby trio, image wot image before taking a break due to poor health. Session work with the 3 KP Sound .Re emmerges with ATV as the guitarist on 1998's revolution album more time off due to a broken arm and played CBGB's punk anniversary in 2001 with Tony Barber of the Buzzcocks on bass(top man and great times). And a short stint in a band called 'Loom' with Ashleigh Marsh and Charles Hayward drummer of This Heat. In 2006 with 5new songs on a 4trck demo recorded mixed and produced by Elwell (keyboardist/guitarist with Bert Shaft Orchestra and the legendary Brain of Morbius) started gigging with percussionist/drummer Sheila Stocking and guitarist/bassman Colin Maloney doing short acoustic sets. Sheila joined the excellent ParaFernalia(see below), meanwhile Colin and myself were head hunted by the talented Fiddle Player Barry Targett. After doing some open spots as a 3piece Arnold Lane of 'Bucket' offered us his services on drums and despite my vow never to be in a full blown band again here we were. Gigs have come thick and fast with some ace shows including one at the Union Chapel for Core Arts which was videoed by our good friend Pete Smith(Bulbous Cabbages) and edited and put up on You Tube by Dave Eyre of VJFlickering Lights fame......

Thanks for some great shows and good luck for the future.....Meanwhile we continue with some very special guests offering to help out with our near future shows....so watch this space.....
