About Me

We played together for 4 years , although we had known each other for decades. We were a three piece, ermm 'multi instrumental' group , always on the look out for more ( instruments that is , not drugs, sorry). We lived in the ironbridge gorge in shropshire (and partly in London ). These songs were recorded with limited knowledge of technology , in the sitting rooms of our houses surrounded by the usual detritus of life, hence the quality wasn't brilliant.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 5/30/2007
Band Website: rodwillisgallery.com
Band Members: Richard ( guitar, bass, piano bits , flute bits and tuba) Rod ( guitar, odd organ sounds, vocals) Kieran (words, vocals, barking, foreign languages)
Influences: 60's 70's prog folk/folk/acoustic stuff mainly with a bit of blues/rock thrown in and a dose of latin noodling for good measure. You name it we listened to it. Apart of course from most 80's chart bands ( what happened then ???) and most 90's chart bands for that matter , not to mention c21st!Our lyrics were a mish mash of kieran flynn , folk standards and the odd classic poem put to music.The music, however, is all ours.Our music and lyrics were more 'influenced' by the landscape and characters of the area where we lived, historical events , poems , mood of light, time of day, beer consumed those kind of things than music. When you listen to music when you are young , you try to have a certain sound or sound like a certain band. We dont try to sound like anyone really , if we do its for no good reason.We just played songs on acoustic guitars.
