The Strides...something for the weekend sir?
Forged from a fusion of the past and present and as finely tuned as Jackie Stewart's Lotus, The Strides now sport a fresh new look and raunchy new sound with the addition of ex- 80's Psych outfit "The Nerve's" Hammond Grindster.

Update April 2008 :- The Strides welcome new skins man Dunc Webster to the line up. Dividing his talents between The Artizans and The Strides, Dunc drives the energy level up another notch. Catch Dunc also on The Artizans page here
Check out some recent gigs. Thanks to Melissa at the Lava Lounge for some great pics!
