Fraz and Gus are two born and bred Brummies who have been living in the area all their lives. Fraz (Faisal Rashid) plays in local bands covering all kinds of genres and was once described by fellow brummie Malcolm Stent, as the only Pakistani Scotsman who thinks he's an Irish Brummie. He is currently playing bass in Brummie Ska band "The Heels", and, bizarrely, guitar and tenor banjo with traditional English Folk outfit "Rannygazoo".
Gussy 'G's musical credentials extend way beyond this paragraph you are about to read, also starting out playing the bass, Gus (Angus Campbell) has worked in just about every genre of music going, including, even more bizarrely, Birmingham's legendary Bhangra scene- and his own company, Campbell productions is a very succesful entity in it's own right. This Album is all about the fantastic people, places and unique situations that you can only find in Birmingham. All the songs on the Album were written recorded performed and produced by Fraz and Gus. A massive big-up to Martyn Phillips for the funniest joke vocal ever and to our very own Kully Bhamra for vocals and Punjabi acting-shacting (ask an Indian if you don't get that).
