"Mustard Allegro are not from California. Perhaps, then, the office blocks, docks and cranes of their native Bristol explain the angular portwards list of their peculiar brand of Surf music. The sense of humour is certainly British: named after an iconically awful 1970s car, and sporting track titles like 'At the Mount of the Chocolate Fountain, At the Fount of the Chocolate Mountain (Hyperdrive!)', the Mustards inhabit a world in which King Crimson write energetic two-minute micro-epics with Joe Meek at the controls, then dash down to the beach, boards in arms, only to find half a mile of mud between them and the Severn Estuary."

Mustard Allegro formed in January 2006, so don't expect much of a back-story. For the benefit of international readers, we should explain that the Allegro was an iconically awful British car of the 1970s, and particularly so in the colour officially called 'harvest gold' or some such guff.
Some of our track titles:
Bradley's New Shoes
Our Finances are in Ruin, Let's Go to the Casino
Guns at Dawn, Spats to Pawn
The Italian Catering Incident
At the Mount of the Chocolate Fountain, At the Fount of the Chocolate Mountain (Hyperdrive!)
Summer of Monkey / Pheasants' Revolt
