Four band members, bored and angry. Derek Richardson on guitar/vox, D. H. Spider on guitar/vox, Neville Chamberlain (ex-Downing Street) on 12-string bass, and 'Bomber' Harris on drums. The 5th Spider is (gasp!) George Martin.
Influences
Difficult to say really ... awareness of the fluid universe and the influences of morphic fields through which energies travel (bene et male); ideas that shape artistic expressions and intuitions. Booze and drugs too!
Musical influences? Comsat Angels, Burt Bacharach, Billy Thorpe & the Aztecs, ABBA, Victorian Parents, Beefheart/Zappa, Chris Squire, Lol Creme & Kevin Godley (from 10cc), Brian Wilson, Easybeats, Wes Montgomery, Barney Kessel, Coltrane, Yello, Beatles, Kinks, Who, Nirvana, London Egg, Troop Mercedes, Death Itself, Bangles, Twilight Singers, Tilly & The Wall.
The Hollywood Spiders are a British band living in the US of A and were formed just after the New York Mining Disaster, 1941! (Spot the clue!)
D. H. Spider captains this strange outfit and he wears even STRANGER outfits. The drummer is 'Bomber' Harris who used to be in Bristol band RAF.
The follow-up to "Hooray For Hollywood Spiders!!" is being recorded at a secret location which the band themselves are finding tricky to find.
Just wanted to wish you a very Merry Christmas from the Woodsons! And may you have a wonderful,healthy and prosperous New Year. Hope to see you in the Spring! :)
