ONE OVER THE EIGHT

BIOGRAPHY:

Grangemouth based folk-rock act formed in 1988 by Greg Drysdale (drums / saxophone, ex-Native Son), Steve Drysdale (vocals / guitar), David May (violin / mandolin / guitar) & Gordon Wood (bass, ex-Blue Ruin), who spent many unemployed months rehearsing and writing their set before unleashing it upon the public at the Grangemouth Rock Festival that year. Soon afterwards Wood left to form his own act Stacatto Hat, and was replaced by Harry Brown. 1989 saw a couple of Highland tours completed, including one with Andy White, before splitting. Brown joined Sweet & Savvy, Steve Drysdale joined Fife act Alto Cirrus, and his brother Greg joined Edinburgh act We Free Kings. Local label Seminal released a retrospective collection of demo and live recordings as an album in 2003.
