FatMan:StarJumps

About Me

We are a 4 piece band from Manchester, which formed in October 2007. Joe & Christian have been friends since the age of 11 and always been involved with creating music together. Chris joined on bass soon after the band was formed, whilst Si is the latest addition having taken over on stick duties in May 2008. With all members having broad tastes in music, we're not afraid to be loud...not afraid to be quiet...and certainly not afraid to try different styles. Like each member of the band, the music is individual, with lyrics that mean something as opposed to just singing "whoa!!" in the chorus.
