Meet the Band

Hi folks. I’m Simon, the keys player, you know, that geezer who sits at the back and makes lots of noise!   I’ve been playing keyboards since I was a boy and played in various bands, ranging from rock tribute bands to rock and pop covers.  My main influences are the Beatles, Queen and Genesis but always interested in new music and ideas.

​

I’m  Cheryl The lead singer of the band but by no means am I the diva, that’ll be Ray! I’ve been singing since I was a very wee lass and I spent a lot of my youth in theatre and bands with friends. I was a member of fantastic musical theatre group in my late twenties where I was lucky to win some lead roles. As a family we grew up listening to all kinds of music genres but I fell in love with the 80’s era  hence many my song choices.

I’m the oldest rocker in the band and  I’ve been playing in bands since I was a teenager.
I mostly played clubs and pubs in the 80s . This is where I learned to play many different styles of music from rock to country to pop and so on.
I moved to Yorkshire in 2018 and press-ganged  Simon and Cheryl into forming the band.
