About Me

After being around for a few years, with some great musicians coming in and going out, His Girl Friday is currently defunct. Members of the band are all over the place. One member was in Canada until recently, another member is travelling around South-east Asia, and another member of the band moved back home to India. We thank everyone for their support during the duration of His Girl Friday. The tunes will remain on this MySpace page."Making music apparently designed to soundtrack aerial shots of polar bears swimming in ironic Busby Berkley circles around melting icecap fragments seems like a great place to kick off from. There's an epicicity about the songs (you know, like epic & electric?) that elevates you to that sort of altitude. Rapidly expanding like a hot air balloon in terms of line-up & sound, HGF are going for the soar. Flap those ears!" - 13th Note.
