A bit about myself and the band...Leadfinger was started by my good self, Stewart 'Leadfinger' Cunningham in 2006 as solo type thingo, I had some new songs and felt like getting up and making a fool of myself again...I was able to talk Steve O'Brien (Tumbleweed, The Unheard) into joining the Leadfinger band on Drums and we started as a 2 piece in July 2006. On NYE 2006 the band was augmented by ex-Thumlock bass player, Wayne Stokes. With Wayne and then Steve leaving, the current 4 piece line up came together in November 2008. All up there have been a lot of solo and band gigs in Melbourne, Sydney, Newcastle and our home town of Wollongong with the likes of YOU AM I, Celibate Rifles, Front End Loader, Kim Salmon and The Visitors and we've put a few rekids out....apart from that I've been playing rock'n'roll since 1985 when I was a young lad....with rock bands like Brother Brick, Proton Energy Pills, Asteroid B-612, The Yes Men and then Power Pop stuff with Challenger 7, I decided to make some new mistakes so here I am again... I was born in Glasgow, Scotland and emigrated to Australia when I was 3 years old. I heard that the music scene was happening over here and that the weather was fine... music is the food of love, play on I say, play on!
