It started back in the early 1990s with Just Like Alice, raw pop songs being belted out in the pubs of North East England - chunky guitars, manic violin and glorious trumpet. Then, after a few comings and goings and a name change it was Tickety-Boo - 'sweet, not sickly boy girl vocals', more violin and a highly regarded EP. Then came the court case when Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber and his publishers took exception to the Ticketys dropping a snatch of one of his most famous tunes into their anthemic 'Cantona'.
