History All of the guys and gals in the band have been playing in working bands for many years. Dave ("Fat B*stard/Charlie") has been playing in bands since the 60's, and appeared on Granada TV with his band in 1968. He also taught the younger ones all he knows - which took about 10 minutes. Lynn (bass) has been playing the bass since she was 9 years old and appeared on National TV in New Faces, along with her brother Dave (lead vocals/guitar) in the same band. Dave was also an original member of the boyband Our Kid who had a number 2 hit in 1976 with "You Just Might See Me Cry" and both Lynn and Dave have been in bands with Ian McNabb (Icicle Works) and Chris Sharrock (Robbie Williams' drummer). Abe (drums) was with OMD (Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark) for a few years when their original drummer went walkabout! Pete (keyboards) has been playing keyboards since he was 7 and has a BTEC in Performing Arts. He played in the Abba Mania theatre show at venues such as the Liverpool Empire and Manchester Opera House. Hayley (lead vocals) has been one of the lead singers in the Abba Mania theatre show at the same venues.
