Green Goblin

About Me

A fresh sounding Scottish band blending a mixture of Rock, Celtic, Jazz and Bluegrass sounds to form something that will blow the socks off you!. After all a band that comprises of the following members could only be described as "Compelling".Jim Duncan "AKA Love Machine" is rumoured to be a distant relation to the world renowned lover, Don Juan. A self proclaimed genius who's many conquests include bedding various female celebrities and even royalty who cannot be named for legal reasons. Main duties include vocals, guitars and general ambience as well as pouting for the female fanbase.Steven McCluskey "AKA Snib" handles the five string banjo duties in the Goblin camp. Little is known about this man but stories tell of how he suddenly disappeared. He became a recluse for many years in Tibet & China where he studied an ancient and lost martial art, and in doing so earned the respect of the great warriors of a time once forgotten to become the ultimate shaolin banjo jedi.Jason Wotherspoon "AKA Spoony" is a gifted lover. He is proud of the fact he can make love to a woman in 7 seconds using only the B string of his bass!. He has travelled the world in pursuit of pleasure and never ceases to amaze with his tales of exotic experiences. Even though he isnt homosexual his story of a weekend in latin america with two gay Venezualan midgets and a glass table would bring a tear to anyones eye.Thomas Meharry “AKA Coco Von Toots” handles the beat division of Green Goblin. He started playing drums at one year old but never turned professional until the age of three. After a recent drumming breakdown Tommy fled to amsterdam where he earned his corn fluffing for a few months then moved on to cleaning out self pleasure booths. Jim was on a song writting trip to Amsterdam and heard Coco playing drums on a homeless person and knew fromat that moment he had to make him a Goblin.Check out some of the tunes in Myspace and keep checking here for live dates.
