We're too young too have a 'Bio', i mean What? you want to hear about two years of, inevitably, exagerrated and decorated tales covering the moment Nick an' Treggy set eyes on each other to the time Bryn first spat onstage... you do? thankjesus:
Al and Bryn are divorced, broke-backed little rats who slink slyly through yesterday's papers 'till we find something to write about. Treggy an' Nick (! the cheek) poach butterflies an' wait for the night. we play rock and roll music, we would say we play R&B but the meaning's changed. t' be honest, lots has changed since the music which got us excited was being made, but that don't detract.
We walked a year as someone else, met the devil at the crossroads, stopped and swapped that name for The Shoestrung, under which title we'll be your evening's entertainment laydees nd gennelmen, here on out.
Keep a clean nose and watch the plain clothes.
