Influences: “Our Dad used to play in a band. He is one of our biggest influences, teaching us how to sing, how to perform and how to entertain people. He’s a good guitarist but our Mum isn’t musical at all.â€The boys share similar musical influences. Craig says that it was Freddie Mercury who inspired them to pursue music. “We were in Majorca when I was about 15 and we heard a Queen tribute band and hearing that got me excited about singing. I’d never really done much before that but from then on I sat at a computer recording my voice and listening to it back, trying to improve it.â€Brian says that his influences include Eric Clapton, Phil Collins and Metallica. Craig adds Elton John, George Michael, Muse and the Scissor Sisters. His favourite single is Queen’s ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ and Brian’s is ‘By The Way’ by The Red Hot Chilli Peppers. They’d both sing ‘We Are The Champions’ by Queen to wow the Judges.
