Spooky Tooth

Spooky Tooth was an English progressive rock band from the late 1960s. They faded into obscurity afterwards, facing problems similar to The Band, in that they were more popular among fellow musicians and industry insiders than with the general public, though they still have quite a few devoted fans.
They formed in October 1967, out of a combination of The Ramrods (1960 - late 1963), The V.I.P.'s (late 1963 - April 1967) and Art (April - October 1967). The line-up changed several times, but typically was:

Philth

PHILTH is a Florida Keys / Miami based four piece band. It was the chance meeting of a singer, Little John, and guitarist Scott Migone, that would make something more than just music was made. This meeting of the two would bring the dirt back to rock music! The Players are: Scott Migone- He has always been the behind the scenes driving force in the areas of studio recording and the song-writing discipline but his modesty and experience allow for others to be creative too.

Jack McKeever

Once upon a time,outsiders flocked to NY's East Village to forge new
directions in music. This was a time when no one would associate Avril
Lavigne with punk or DYI alternative music with any formula. This time
has mostly passed away except for the modern masters, who still follow
their own artistic muse with complete disregard for the values of the
market place.These highly developed voices still forge their music with
no allegiance outside of the the voice of their muse.
Jack McKeever is one of these entities. Sophisticated, deeply connected

HERE COMES THE LANDED GENTRY

Having formed in the Autumn of 2007 by brothers Rion and Gavin McCartney, long time family friend David Doherty and local werewolf John Keaveney – HCTLG have grown in strength from day one. Having played some great gigs things took a real leap forwards following the induction of members Marty Doherty on vocals in Feb ’08 and Philip ‘Wally’ Wallace on drums the following month due to the departure of Gavin (Who still remains an integral part of the bands songwriting process). This shift meant a change in sound, attitude and style!
