The DKB's ranks are augmented on an ad-hoc rotational basis by the following musicians:
Jimmy Smyth (Electric Guitar): Jimmy is a veteran session guitarist of both national and international acclaim. Check out Jimmy's "B-bender" work on "Garden Party" ... nice pedal steel emulation there James !!
Anto Drennan (Electric Guitar): Anto's CV as a sessioneer reads like a veritable "Who's Who" of the rock'n'roll world, having graced the stage with acts such as The Corrs , Genesis and Chris Rea, to name but a few.
Mal O'Brien (Electric Guitar): Mal is the "baby" of the bunch, but despite his youth, he's a stunningly versatile player, equally at home with rock, jazz fusion and "country pickin'" styles.
Here's a cool clip of Anto lettin' loose on "
Little Wing".
Influences: Lowell George Little Feat , Bonnie Raitt , Free , Bad Company, Crosby stills Nash , Beatles, Bobby Bland, Vince Gill,Ray Charles , Etta James , Elvis , entire 1970 Chelsea football team, Ry Cooder , Dobie Gray, Guy Clarke, early ZZ, Dave Edmunds , S,R,V, Willie Nelson, loads more I cant think of now,
