"If you learn to play the guitar you'll never go hungry!"...
These immortal words spoken by our father sparked the enthusiasm to become musicians (possibly through fear considering that he said this when we were about 11!) and ever since that day both myself (Fraser) and my brother (Crawford - although I'm sure that you probably worked that out through process of elimination...) have been involved in music - playing, writing, rehearsing, collaberating, improving...
Various incarnations of our band have been around since we first started playing, along with changes to our sound. Indeed it has been remarked upon by some people that they can't understand how we came to write more mid-tempo, acoustic type songs considering that our first (and fairly successful, if I may be so bold!) act was more akin to Metallica, Living Colour, Chilli Peppers etc...
The subtleties of age...
Crawford is the Ubermeister - the techno-wizard, the producer, the web-master, the programmer, the arranger, the songwriter, the guitar/banjo/mandolin/fiddle/piano player...The guy who tells me to go away and come up with something better when I believe that what I've done is the s*!t...
For my part, such as it is, I am the bass guitarist, song writer and vocalist...Mmmm.
We have been the only constant in our musical journey as many others have come and gone, either through differences in musical philosophy or ego. (I'm not saying that we don't all have an ego, it's just that it continues to surprise me that some egos become over-inflated at such an early stage).
Anyway, with this brief overview of our life in music, we thank you for viewing, commenting and listening.
We hope you enjoy it.
