LEATHER PIG - The story

It all began way back when, in the early summer of 2007. Alex (Drums) and Lewis (Bass) had just finished a four year stint in another band called 'LIDNA' and were looking to start a new project but needed to find the missing pieces to form the new band.
They sought the help of a talented guitarist called H who was then working behind the bar of a local establishment called 'The Royal Oak'.
Originally on vocals they had Dudley but he left in the early stages to try his hand at different projects, so this meant that 3 were left Alex, Lewis and H.
After many auditions for a singer (Some good, bad and ugly) they found a fearless front man in Pete (ex vocalist of Knilt), who came along to the audition and fitted straight in.
Then the final piece of the puzzle was complete after a blinding audition Leki (Formally of The Freak porn experiment) joined on guitar to complete the band!!
