Little did they know at the time, that their efforts at genealogy would reveal to them a very well kept secret. This revelation led them along the righteous garden path towards making their mark on the world of music and (very) light entertainment.
In the same way in which they were driven together, they were both compelled to follow in the footsteps of a legendary TV musician and entertainer, very close to their hearts.
Determined to follow in these immortal footsteps, the ‘Bar-Steward Sons’, as they were soon to become, naturally began to perform other people’s songs in a style-of-their own. To complete their squeaky-clean image, they became instantly recognisable for their immaculate hair and their stylish dress-sense.
However, on that fateful day, on-board the mobile library, the duo was very soon to become a threesome (not in the biblical sense). The driver of the aforementioned book-bus, Alan Doonican, happened to share in their love for trendy knit-wear and great music. It was no coincidence that Alan became honorary, part-time accordion player in the band, and Scott and Danny went on to become honorary full-time members of the library.
The rest, as-we-say, is history!
