Keyboard, Lead Guitar.ABOUT
Our style varies from blues to classic rock to indie to just plain old rock! What we're really looking to try and do is go back to the good old setup of a four or five piece band that doesnt use any gimmicks, just knows how to play their instruments fairly well and write some good songs, of the essence of such greats as The Eagles, Clash, Beatles, Costello, The Jam etc etc. None of these guys were session musicians but made a pretty good career out of writing songs that a vast majority of people still enjoy listening to now.

Wrote this song entirely while in a pub in Watford, came up with the riff when I got home. Probably the most popular song we've written.

One of our heavier tracks, its been slightly rewritten since this recording to get rid of the awful bridge.
