Being current and/or former members of Beatles tribute bands, as well as fans of the 1978 Monty Python/SNL film "All You Need is Cash", it was only natural that Mike,Brian,Tommo,and Ronn got together to play the music of "The Pre-Fab Four". /////////////////
"You just hear OUCH!, I don't care if you're in a bad mood, if you're depressed, if you just found out your best friend had shot himself, and you hear OUCH!, you're in a good mood."
-Conan O'Brien
OUCH! on BBC special:
Ciao OUCH! - Una canzone è davvero bella quando le sue note giungono dritte al cuore! - A song is really beautiful when his notes come straight to the heart! - Una canción es realmente hermosa cuando sus notas vienen directamente al corazón!

HEY!! As im sure you will realise this is a group message, but with equal importance to everyone who reads it. (we are musicians NOT corporate bastards!)
In 2/3 weeks we will be unveiling our EP. This will be available online, and we will let you know where from closer to the time, but for now weve chucked in a few old favourites for you all to remember.
Although everyone says this, we truly mean it...We love you all, your love for music is what keeps us going, if it werent for you, whats the point. Keep listening!
Oi bloomin oi!How the hell are you? here is a quick update on whats going on:
Will Rixon has mutated into a band called 'Garden State'. We plan to take over the music world. The band now includes the following artists:
Will Rixon: Vox, Rhythm Guitar, Keys
Neil 'Maz' Marron:Bass guitar
Dan 'Minta':Lead guitar
Chris 'Kibble' - White - Drums and sex
We have an EP coming out mid May and will be available on this site.
Our debut gig as a band is 4th June 07 at The Original Songwriters' in The Orange in West Kensington,it will be an amazing amoozing night!
Minta was brought up by chickens in northern zambia. They taught him guitar but then a buxom hen broke his heart by sleeping with his best mate....a rooster....hence the scripture on his guitar.
Website coming very soon! If any Management companies etc etc like our music we urge you to contact us asap!
Take a listen, it will almost definately be 'your kind of thing'!
Hello OUCH! - What can we say, other than the fact that we are shocked and stunned! Shocked ... and Stunned. Up until a few minutes ago, our favorite Austin bands were the "Austin Lounge Lizards"; and we used to love Tish Hinojosa, Kelly Willis and some of your other local legends .. but now, all of that is cast aside in a sweeping gesture of humility and grace. You guys sound more like us than we do, but we think people will love you .. nevertheless.
OUCH! Will rule the music world one day..one month,one year..no one...well,anyway boy's enjoy your cheese and onions and thanks for giving me something to smile about(after H.Katrina) while I lived in Austin! Now come to L.A. and be fab here.
