About Me

We generally play the usual Edinburgh haunts - Bannermans, Binkies, Left Bank, Nectar, Subway, The Village but if anyone wishes to offer us support slots on their world tour we're ready and willing to diversify.

All things on these here songs played by Size Jackson except for trumpet on Kalashnikov by Reginaldo.
