About Me

THE BAGWEEDS is mostly Matt, sometimes Flab and sometimes they’re not even themselves. Jeff Lynne is obviously their main influence. Says Matt: "My love for Jeff Lynne goes all the way back to the 70s when I first listened to Mr. Blue Sky coming out of my brothers Stereo. I was 5 years old by the time."THE BAGWEEDS is also Chris who’s a soundman extraordinary! Matt’s playing a bunch of instruments while Chris is taking lead in the engineering and producing process (being closely watched by Matt). Richard, located in The Hague, Holland, is playing keyboards.THE BAGWEEDS are currently working on their debut album, most likely to be called "Psychedelic Moon".
