VAN SUSANS

Poet meets Drummer Boy meets Guitar Hero meets Piano Man makes rock band. That is the short account of Van Susans. For the unabridged version of this story, search any good bookstore for ‘The Melodic Life of Van Susans’. The biography which is priced at the ridiculously handsome sum of 9.99 begins life in a suburban back alley garage come makeshift studio 7 years prior to Van Susans. This whimsically recollected page turner tells of Drummer Boy and Poets roots, their artisanal siblings and eventual ascent to the canopy of the magic faraway tree.

Free Peace

Free Peace is a three-piece rock band formed in August 2008 by Liverpool music maverick Edgar Jones, who writes the material, sings and plays bass. His nephew Nick Miniski is on drums and Stuart Gimblett plays lead guitar.
Their sound is loud and heavy but contains a lot of soul. Led Zep are a definite influence but The Jimi Hendrix Experience and the New Orleans soul sound are in there too. Like the great rock bands of the late 60s Free Peace is all about respecting the traditions of jazz r'n'b and soul music - something which Edgar feels a lot of the modern bands just don't do.
