VOCALS & LEAD GUITAR Danny is a 26 year old boy from Dartford, Kent. He likes to play his guitar and shout with his mouth as melodically as possible. Danny also likes to write songs and sometimes draw pictures. Chances are you’ll get on with him although you won’t quite know why. Danny met Reesus at secondary school at the age of 11. They would occassionally skip classes to jam together at home.. This is not a practise condoned by The Rapscallions. Danny is strange, bossy and drunk
VOCALS & BASS Reesus is another 26 year old boy. Apparently! Dwelling in the pit of South East London that is....dun dun dahhhhhhh....BELVELDERE! Often confused with the messiah, he is NOT the messiah...He’s a very naughty boy! Reesus is the backbone of The Rapscallions sound playing Rhythm and delivering solid bursts of vocal energy. Some say he has no backbone and that he sold it to the Devil at the crossroads in return for a musical backbone for The Rapscallions. This might be the case, but what can be extinguished is the rumour that he has longer hair than any other male human being. It is the 3rd longest! THIRD! Reesus is confused, 5’9" tall, and has a beard.

Mama Shamone http://www. myspace. com/mamashamone “Put Mama Shamone on at any venue and they are likely to take the roof off, this was one of the best live shows I’ve seen in years - certainly one of the best in London. In my opinion these guys are destined for greatness, it felt like I was witnessing history being shaped-something was just so right about what they were doing up there.” Vibe Bar
