PREACHING THE WORDS & MUSIC OF MARRIOTT & LANE ...

About Me


Are you all sitting comfortabilty to squarebold on your botty then I will begin !
The band was put together by Leroy Small, our very own Stevie Marriott (ex Soul Survivors and New Amen Corner) after Percy Davis (The Boss Men, The Ebonies & Raymond Froggatt Band) heard he was looking for new guys to form a new band.He recomended Mick Keefe (Blind Drivers) & Carl Stokes (Cancer) to play bass & drums, & after a brief jam, SMALLS FACES had been born.They got together & jammed a hand full of Faces tunes & new the chemistry & vibe were there, as you hear on the track "EVERY LITTLE BIT HURTS" on the Myspace player, It was recorded at only the bands second rehearsal session "Walts an all!".Leroy has a Soulful voice and extensive vocal range, & with his mean gretsch guitar, he hits all the right notes! He was searching for a new Ronnie Lane, Ian Mclagan and Kenney Jones, to form a band that sounds as good as the original.
We all know that there will only ever be one SMALL FACES, but our aim is to recapture the energy and Drive of their music and live performances, & preach the words & Music of Marriott & Lane to a whole new generation of music fans, making friends & saying hello to old ones along the way.With a focus on re creating the sound & live energy of the LEGENDARY SMALL FACES than becoming "ANOTHER LOOK A-LIKE BAND", This show promises to be the ultimate tribute to the ultimate R & B group of the swinging sixties!. Small's Faces also play tribute to the other Influential Mod bands of the day, by opening up with a half hour set (most shows) playing various forgotten Anthems & gems, before returning after a short break with the one hour Ultimate Small Faces set, The boy's hope to see you soon, till then ... Stay Cool Wontcha ;0)
Everybody connected with the band would like to give a big thank you to Steve Eastment for his help in getting this whole thing off the ground & the best of luck with his new business venture SMASH STUDIO in Telford.
