Brighton based unique two-piece band. Formed in Paris, France in 1993 Two Timers have forged a formidable live reputation in the UK and across all of Europe. Two multi instrumentalists that sound like a tight four piece unit. Powerful vocalist / drummer/ harmonica player Sarah James (think Sam Brown / Julie Driscoll) commands attention from the off. Guitarist Gordon Russell (ex Geno Washington, Dr Feelgood) segs from electric to acoustic, bottleneck to mandolin whilst footstomping an electrified suitcase (played like a bass drum). No slouching there then. Whilst drawing parallels with early blues outfits this band has its own definitive style and sound. (See influences to get some idea). Billed on many major European festivals, guested with such acts as The Corrs, John Mayall, Ray Davies, Ian Hunter, Taj Mahal, Maceo Parker, The Stranglers and in 2000 played a 25-date tour of venues across the UK (including Wembley) as opening act for Status Quo.
