BIG BLUE FUNKY WHALE

BIOGRAPHY:

Local indie-pop act formed in 1990 by Nigel Frayling-Kelly (keyboards / vocals, ex-Constable Savage), Robbie Lesuik (bass, ex-Tuliptown), Dave McIntosh (guitar, also with Filigree Son), Paul Tonner (samples) & Steve Wallace (drums, ex-Tuliptown). During their time they also played with various other acts: Frayling-Kelly & Lesuik with Colors Coral, Wallace with Slowdown, and all members except McIntosh formed Spag Bog. In 1993 the band had a track on the "Buzztracks" compilation cassette, and continued to play live into 1994 including an appearance at "The Event In The Tent" in Grangemouth. After the band split Lesuik, Tonner & Wallace formed Twister, whilst Frayling-Kelly joined Strawberry. McIntosh, meanwhile, continued with his own act, Filigree Son.
