GB79 are three very experienced musicians who have performed on TV and Radio
as well as supporting acts as diverse as the Animals, the Sweet and Jeff Lynne
 
Mr Russell
Phil has been playing for more years than his youthful good looks would suggest (what?!).
He is an experienced musician with appearances on MTV and radio 1 to his credit as well as supporting acts such as YES and the Average White Band.
In fact he has appeared on stage with many big name acts - until security threw him off.
According to Phil a bass guitar shall have no more than four strings, must have frets and if the instrument entirely obscures both nipples you're wearing it too high.

  Mr Nile  
Mr Nile
Neil is a versatile guitarist and vocalist capable of playing and singing songs from almost any genre.
His influences include Mrs Doubtfire, Biffo the Bear and many others.
Neil actually joined the band by accident, apparently he only answered the ad for 'singer wanted' because he had an old sewing machine for sale.
He loves to play his Fender Telecaster. It only looks like it's a vintage guitar because he forgot to take it off when he went potholing.
 
 
Mr deJong
Phil is a talented and powerful drummer with a wealth of playing experience.
He started playing drums at around age 10 using mum's knitting needles and a biscuit tin.
Our first rehearsal was a bit ropey, so we made him buy a proper kit.
Personally, I miss the biscuit tin.
He recently joined the flat earth society where he gets to meet people from all over the globe.
