    MySpace Layouts MySpace Codes MySpace Backgrounds

In the late 1970's and early 1980's I played in a band called Sta Prest. We were a pop band and got caught on the new wave / mod revival of the time and played everywhere and anywhere.
We released 'Schooldays 7" and 'Unsung Hero's', but lost the will to carry on when success appeared to allude us.
I gave up playing music for many years, and lost myself in 'the day job'. Last year for some unknown reason I began writing again. The songs came thick and fast and now all I want to do is play them - everywhere and anywhere, so some things dont change !!!
I no longer play in a band, so if you come to a gig you'll just see me with my old guitar.
Nowdays I play no frills pop songs, and enjoy every minute of it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pcUFUVVQGwQ
