Quick Fire Just For Fun

The absolute essential item for us on tour is…

Our slippers!

Our most challenging journey for the least payoff led us to…

Continually explaining to a venue manager that there is no volume button on drums!

Keeping fit on the road requires…

Jumping around the stage like madmen.

The coolest pit stop worldwide is…

Whistlestop Café, Teignmouth.

A must-have in our tour survival kit is…

A leather man and a roll of gaffer tape.

The weirdest gig we’ve ever played happened at…

Paignton Zoo – way past the animals’ bedtime.

The place with the best bathroom graffiti is..

Barrelouse Ballroom, Totnes.

The best part of performing live is the feeling of…

The first time that the audience sing your songs back to you.

The silliest thing ever said onstage was…

Someone has gone and got our lyrics tattooed on their arm – they really have!

How we prepare for a show…

Gang huddle – always.

Shout out to a local business in Exeter…

Deepset Guitars – they make sweet handmade, Devon-crafted guitars, and they endorse our guitarist.

– Darren Branch

Darren Branch’s first love was Heavy Metal, sparked by seeing Iron Maiden live at the Cornwall Coliseum in 1984 at the age of 13. His passion for grassroots music grew after discovering the vibrant local scene around Daylight Recording Studios in Honiton during the late 1980s. Having lived in Honiton and Exeter, Darren now lives in South Somerset and enjoys spending time in South Carolina. He stays deeply connected to the Southwest’s emerging bands—often through families that keep the scene alive. Outside music, he builds websites, reads business books, and participates in English Premier League Fantasy Football.
