Stewart - Bass Player/Band Coordinator

In between gigs Stewart other responsibility is to deal with the bands bookings, check out venues’ arrival times etc, to make sure every gig we do is organiesd in the most professional way possible. Stewart first started playing bass way back in the late 60s early 70s he played in local bands with LMD Entertainments (Lionel Digby) acting as their agent he was fortune enough to have played on the same bill as Hawkwind and Fleetwood Mac at the Torquay town hall.

 Andy -Drums & Backing Vocals

It was a sad day for the percussion industry when, in 1970, Andy bought his first drum kit. From that first tentative beginning his career has gone rapidly downhill, he sets himself very low targets and consistently fails to achieve them. No seriously, no more drummer jokes from now on.

For the past 15 years Andy has occupied the drummer’s seat in Freeway, certainly the longest time he has spent in any band, which shows the level of musicianship and commitment needed to be a part of the most successful party band to come out of Torbay for a long time.

Andy has played with many well respected bands throughout his career. The first band he played in was formed in his student days at the then Torquay Tech, (now South Devon College) when he got together with other students to to form a highly successful, country, rock and blues band. This band went through several changes of line up and eventually ran its course. There then followed a change to playing drums in a top south Devon rock band, Sniper, which was the breeding ground for several top musicians in the area. When this period of his musical experience ended he tried a different type of music, playing in a trio, with residencies in both Exeter and Torquay. This was also very successful and enhanced his reputation on the music scene. He formed his own band in the early 80’s which ran for 8 years and played extensively through out the south of England.

A spell with a top Exeter based show band in the late 80’s followed and resulted in him supporting such bands as The Searchers, Freddie and the Dreamers and Joe Brown...
