About Me

A last minute cancellation at Bunters in December 2005 brought Matt Exelby and Kev Leatham together for an impromptu evening of acoustic guitar, vocals and drums, playing a mixture of Matts songs and covers.
Having enjoyed the experience immensely they recruited Ben Morgan on bass and Rosalie James on backing vocals and it is this four-piece which performs today, although other musicians have appeared on their debut album "All Aboard The Skylark".
Stylistically the band draw on influences as diverse as Bob Dylan, Burt Bacharach and Ronnie Hazelhurst with elements of Ragtime piano, all immersed in the eternal quest for a decent pop tune
