Dan Markland

2009 has been an extraordinarily busy year for what can accurately be described as the bastard lovechild of Paul Weller, Joe Strummer and Janis Joplin (if that were possible). With a debut single roaming the Sussex airwaves and countless appearances up and down the coast to promote it, the group have now expanded to a foursome and the fire just keeps on burning. Keeping the formula simple whilst also lyrically complex and fascinating makes 2010 the year for this band to explode.
