The four tunes featured on the player are from our debut LP. Craig has been in dozens of regularly gigging acts from 1984 to date two of which include Psycho's Mum who released an LP on Nick "The Bevis Frond" Saloman's Woronzow label in 1989 and Sunsnake who had a residency in the 414 Club in Brixton in 1998 and were regulars at The Exodus Free Festival alongside acts such as Tarantism, Headjam, P.A.I.N. and The Inner Terrestrials. Last year Craig sang on a Dub/Psych version of Urban Guerrilla by Sendelica with guest appearances by Nik Turner formerly of Hawkwind and Colin Consterdine formerly of Zion Train. Craig is also an author and amongst many works of narrative literature has contributed to a new compilation of Jerry Cornelius stories with an intro by Michael Moorcock. Dave has been a recent and long term member of The Nik Turner Band and before that enjoyed many years as one half of a double act with Bob Fish from the chart topping Rock and Roll band "The Darts". Perry also plays in the long standing Grunge Metal band Love Rocket with former Strange Agency troubadours Luke Roberson and Tom Cole. Isie also plays alongside Dave Green in 3 Penny Twist.
