Tech and chops, Chris Hogarth on bass and vocals, widly regarded as Mr Funk and for very good reason ! from the first 10 seconds of playing you will feel why.

Graham Braid, Vocals, a long time funksmith from back in the day, there is no doubt graham was born to groove,

his lyrics are catchy and his phrasing is pure funk.

in the NW, he is like Rick wakeman on Crack"
