Karl Phillips & The Midnight Ramblers

When is a band not a band? Perhaps when it's made up of disparate members whose combined musical heritage touches on orchestral, jazz, ska and, er, grime. With so many influences, and a frontman who "was never really into music" it's any wonder the four-piece ever got together. But here they stand ready to reveal the ingredients in their melting pot of ideas. Moving outside the M25 to Wellingborough may not sound like the first step on the MC career ladder.
