BAND BIOGRAPHIES

Each band member plays their part in creating atmospheres that imbue the songs with colour, light and shade…

Dave at Spice of Life 2024-06-01_edited.jpg

DAVID BATES

Bass/Vocals

It's all about laying down that fat bottom end with a dash of soul and funk to boot. David serves up tasteful grooves to drive the music forward and keep things rumbling.

Rick at Spice of Life 2024-06-01_edited.jpg

RICK BULL

Guitar/Vocals

Adding fingerstyle textures and bluesy/modal lead-lines, while complimenting the sentiment of the lyrics, Rick strives to bring the personalities of each song to the front and foremost.

BEN GLOVER

Guitar/Vocals

Bring vibrancy and melody to the music with fluid guitar lines, Ben is at home providing rhythm and snarling lead lines, always for the benefit of the song.

Joe at Spice of Life 2024-06-01_edited.png

JOE ROGERS

Percussion/Vocals

Completing the rhythm section, Joe juxtaposes infectious powerhouse fills reminiscent of John Henry Bonham, with honeyed vocals, all the while keeping the band on their toes with off-kilter rhythms.
