The Settlers
Do you remember 'The Lightning Tree', famous as the theme tune for TV's 'Follyfoot' ? The original Settlers line-up had some personnel changes until Steve and Patty were asked to join founder member Mike Jones to bring back those original, acoustic, close harmonies. The band's pop-folk sound was successful throughout the 70's and 80's until the group disbanded.
Dave Smith and I joined the reformed line-up a couple of years ago. We played a few concerts and recorded a new album. Unfortunately, Covid put paid to the world of entertainment and the band is no more.

Our little function band Special Delivery played together for many years. We played everything from quiet jazz to rock - Bob could sing anything. He has now emigrated to the sun.
In 2021 our drummer Brian passed away. He was the perfect drummer for our band, totally reliable, both musically and in every other way. One of the nicest people I've ever known.

The Country Knights
Over the past few years we supported Ricky Valance at The Blackfriars Theatre, Boston, and have played the Granary Theatre, Wells, The Bourne Corn Exchange, and many country music clubs.
The line-up featured The Wrights (pedal steel and vocal duo), Drummer Reg (the brains behind the outfit), and Ron Ryan, an unsung hero of British rock n' roll and country music. Sadly, Reg passed away in 2023, and the band is no more.
