We've got an axe to grind and the wounds to prove it.
A rag-tag Band, this. Bolting from disparate corners of time, space and Yorkshire, a new group emerges from the moonlit night to take centre stage in the quest for a true alternative to Alternative. Our destination? Uncharted territory, new and familiar. We are here to find and explore the heart and soul of All Things. Pounding drums and tall stories, bodyshaking tunes with depth and truth, a Band - The Band - you can dance AND think with.
We have not been here very long. But let us in and we will stay with you forever.

Great show at the Carpe Diem, when is the next port of call for the good ship prevelator? Ignore that landlubber Chief Whip he needs a good keel hauling and doesn't know difference between port and starboard.Anytime you're looking for new crew members give me a call...but no press gangs. thanks. Cat Presley
Me and Cat Presley(local legend in his own head)saw you in Leeds on Saturday night and thought you were great. Loved the blend of Punk and dirty blues...and The Captain is a brilliant frontman. I will be spreading the word and looking out for when you're playing again. (Have you got anything booked?)ps I,m trying to encourage The Cat to get a top hat!
