About Me

Obi Got Ludo, In trying to avoid the usual things in a band bio, we have decided to omit the following incidental and irrelevant fragments of information... "How we met eachother", "Line up changes" and "The history of mankind". We all have various influences (some of which we share similarities with, and some, we do not) and various ideas about the kind of band we are and the music we make. This is something that we all collectively embrace as a good, healthy starting point to making music. All of us have learnt through previous musical experiences that the only way we will ever succeed to entertain other people (whatever that means) is to first entertain ourselves. At the same time we are far more interested to see how other poeple catagorise our music than trying to do it ourselves. We enjoy the freedom of not having to declare our style or direction. Have a listen and let us know what you think, even if you didnt like it.
