BACKGROUND
I was the Singer/songwriter for BRIK MARINE a moderately successful 80’s Leeds rock band. We headlined most pub/club rock venues in northern England, supported a few major bands and played down the bill at a couple of festivals. We reached the finals of a Battle of the bands competition, have a track on an EMI compilation album ‘Rock On’( I actually signed a contract with EMI ). Sold few records made no money packed in and went and did a proper job for 20 odd years.
ANGLO SAXON
Like most people we think the London Bombings were a Watershed in our history. For my birthday in January 2006 my partner bought me a new guitar and all of a sudden these patriotic songs started coming out of us. She co-wrote the lyrics on ‘This is England’ ‘When Daddy comes marching home’ and ‘Lest’ we forget 7/7′… Got in touch with an old band member who has a studio and an internet based record company ‘confidential records’ and ANGLO SAXON was born on 23rd of April 2006 (work it out).
