Despite the shit..Lifes beautiful dont you think?

About Me

May 2007 was the month, & that month was good!!!
We cant quite remeber how, but everything fell into place, like it was magic, or fate or something else but whatever it was, it was a meeting of minds. . .

. . . & it was good!!!
We found an amazing studio, that is fast becoming a musical urban legend within our town - blulamp ( check out http://sukmymic.bulldoghome.com )
Within four weeks we were gagging to get out & gig, go play our music to the masses, or whoever would listen & share the experience, but enough of the blah blah, heres a bit about us, the band;
Jamie Jones - Lead Vocals & Guitar.
Jamie has been in & out of bands since the age of 12, & had a stint as a session musician when he was 16. He most recently played with the northant's based outfit Isabelle. Prior to this he also played solo for a number of years in & around the South East. Over the years Jamie has owned several beautiful Guitars, & cant quite remember where he played them last.
Scott Titherly - Bass Guitar.
Scott has only been playing Bass since January 2007, after playing guitar for a number of years in minor bands, he decided that he wanted to try something different, that & he prefered the soul tingling sexiness the Bass guitar oozes out to him & everyone who hears it. He is currently undertaking a BTEC national diploma in technical & practical music.
Dan Russell - Drums.
Dan took up drums when he started secondary school, just as a noisy hobby to piss his mum off, eventually that novelty wore off & he started to take music more seriously, begging his music teacher to let him join the school band, & as time went on, start up bands with different concepts, such as rhythm & blues to playing on broken shopping trolleys & dustbins.
So ultimately we've concluded....
