About Me

The band began around 1989 in Cardiff, UK.Members Richard O'Brien, Steve Roberts & Jon Hillier started jamming/gigging jazz funk/fusion/rock tunes with a 50/50 split between original material and classic cover tunes by Chick Corea from 'Romantic Warrior', 'Room 335' by Larry Carlton, Allan Holdsworth's 'Temporary Fault' and a Billy Cobham 'Spectrum' medley, which brought the talents of all three players to the fore.

Along with a high level of musicianship, the band also brought stage theatrics with them to shows, which due to the 'serious' nature of the music was a real crowd pleaser.

This page is a tribute to the band that are still talked about on the Cardiff music scene, even today.

More details/music to follow.

I'm looking for any information on the band. If anyone has any photos/stories about the band or gigs please send them in!
