About Me

Paddy Phield is legendary Japanese drummer who played in Punk-New Wave Era in London, from late 70's to early 80's. He joined the band called "RAPED" in 1977. They released 1 EP(including "Moving Target") and 1 single "Cheap Night Out", and had changed their name to "CUDDLY TOYS" with John Peel's kindly suggestion. "CUDDLY TOYS" was getting popular in post-punk scene in UK, Europe, USA and Japan. Unfortunately Paddy had to leave UK and return to Japan, because of his UK visa problem. That's really sad, however he'd returned UK with new visa and formed new band called "PANACHE". This band was extremely popular in early 80's in Japan. Since then, he disappeared from the music scene........, but he returned in 2006 !!!!! So keep your eyes on Paddy Phield !!!!!
