  • Bio

    .. .. .. .. ..Indigo.. Available from Amazon.co.uk .... A rainbow of sounds, eclectic styles and theatrical moments created by friends... ..There are no rules or pre-conceived ideas. There is no intention to create anything in particular other than that which organically appears in the time and space that we share... ..We draw our influence from life and not by any particular artist or album however we remain eternally grateful to those that have inspired us as individuals and shaped us into who we are. These varying influences come together as the ingredients to our hoopy collaboration... ..We continually strive to improve our recorded sound, our live performance and our creations themselves by never completing any piece of music but by letting it evolve, change shape and improve as hopefully we will... ..We try to make people smile... ..Be hoopy, be happy!.. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..

"I say - WOW !!!!!! This album is totally up my street - I really can't recommend it enough... ..Full review.... ...."We suspect the work of hippies"....
