big cities, suburban gardens, bad dancing, tiny amplifiers, kitchen appliances, wikipedia, girls on bicycles, clouds, digestion, big old sofas, pub quizzes, cricket and pop music™.
we are a skronky three piece pop band from london town. we sing honest songs about growing up in suburbia, getting on the city, and fighting inertia with mental powers. we enjoy harmonising and whooping, and we love to crank it out with our amps on eleven.
we live for playing live and pride ourselves on being twisted, melodious and ferociously tight. we think it's what we do best of all, and we want you to come along and join in the fun. for if you join in, you are part of daddy long legs too, and when YOU get down, daddy long legs gets down.
BBC news magazine had this to say about daddy long legs: "there is no escaping them, lolloping around and battering into every window, wall, light and person that gets in their way". can't argue with that.
we,re hosting a month of monday night gigs at the Vibe bar Brick Lane. "Breaking out the old Routine" start the week like you mean it, and tell it whos boss with a party on monday night with Tom Mansi and the Icebreakers we,ll be playing each week with lots of lovely friends guests supporting and headlining each week with us tucked in the middle somewhere playing lots of new stuff and some oldies too.

Daddies, you have made me weep. Despite all the silence, not once were you forgotten ... nor will any of you or your music ever be. I'll head over to the new blog site, now that I've read the last post here.
Always remember that you're greatly loved ... Jules
Hey! Sorry to hear you are no more. Was only listening to your 45 the other day from a show in Winch! :-) Still thoroughly enjoy! Wishing you guys all the best in what you go on to do xxx
