creates music that can best be described as “psycho-country”, fronted by Frank E. (Calum

Seriously one of the most interesting combos that came out of the “noughties”. “JK-EE” Tim Fitcroft – ukuleles, guitar, accordion; “Jan E. blister” Jan Suchanek – bucket bass; “A.N.Other Musician” Billy Smith – fiddle; John “D.
Vile” Devolle – drums. Just having an EP, t-shirts and website out so YIEHA
