The DB Band story begins here, long before their rise to global acclaim. It all started when Barry (Mick Quinn of Supergrass) walked through the alleys and backstreets of Oxford in search of the ideal musical partnership, and came out into the sunshine with Fab (Paul Wilson of Shake Appeal), as the perfect bass-playing foil, followed shortly by Miikey D. Smith, who had been scraping a living as an itinerant bongo player, but was persuaded to become the beating heart of this lively rock combo.
South London vocal-centred band, with influences from Bowie to Pixies, Kate Bush to Divine Comedy, with a helping of blur & Longpigs. New melodies and gorgeous sound with ferocious live act. They sweat more than you drink on a Friday binge.
