born on the top of a rusty christian mosque spier, farmboy was instantly abandoned and rushed to an animal care centre, where he made many friends. Feeling the teasing pain of sexual urges at the young age of 2, he particularly befriended a white and brown lop eared rabbit, miss trixy lixy minxy. within 3 months their children were born, but before farmboy was aware of this he had already been shipped of to the top of a mountain in new beanland, for reputation as a troublemaker. Here he lived the goodlife for several years, adopting the habits of his much missed lover and eating mostly carrots. within these few years, in the fashion of all rabbits, his children grew at a much faster rate than that of pure blooded humans, and some of them were rumoured to become successful adults much before farmboy reached his teendom. One such case is said to be Tim campbell, winner of the widely acclaimed tv series the apprentice, fronted by alan sugar, who, by pure coincidence, is farmboys great-uncle.Campbell flat out and rudely denies any relation to farmboy, or his mother, rather preferring to pretend he hasn't an ounce of rabbit in him and is pure human. So be it, who's laughing now?
However one of farmboy's more caring children did give him the time of day and tracked him down to bring him back home to england. There he was raised from the age of 11 to 18, in as lovingly a way as any sonrabbit can. it is said that it was what farmboy can only describe as "my son's general rabbityness" that first inspired his love for music. Until the age of 15 he didn't even know it existed, his young, neglected and confused mind thinking that sound actuallycame in the form of an apple; and even for the first couple of years he didn't care for the cacophony. But now what you hear before you (clearly in the form of an ORANGE) is ewhat farmboy's life has become about. A shame to some, described as an awful target for the lost souls of xanidu by others, farmboy works in a bunker, waiting for the bombs, which is what he plans to do till he runs out of carrots.
.. OK... BUT WHAT ABOUT FARMBOY?
(AND IN THE WORDS OF PHIL COLLINS) BUT SERIOUSLY...
farmboy is also a member of old bamboo, the dankos and occasional cosmic charlie (grateful dead cover band). He is currently part of The victorious Jin, helping Paranoia Pete along the way in his live performances. He has played with picklepuss, the con and second line (salaryman's Groove Sun's previous musical outing) and contributes (when he's around) to other acts associated with and around human error records.
He likes tivalle veggie sausage, but he's not vegatarian.
