VAN SUSANS

Poet meets Drummer Boy meets Guitar Hero meets Piano Man makes rock band. That is the short account of Van Susans. For the unabridged version of this story, search any good bookstore for ‘The Melodic Life of Van Susans’. The biography which is priced at the ridiculously handsome sum of 9.99 begins life in a suburban back alley garage come makeshift studio 7 years prior to Van Susans. This whimsically recollected page turner tells of Drummer Boy and Poets roots, their artisanal siblings and eventual ascent to the canopy of the magic faraway tree.

The Leisure Society

The story of The Leisure Society began in Burton-Upon-Trent when Nick Hemming picked up a guitar and formed a band with Shane Meadows, Paddy Considine and Rich Eaton. Following a year of demos and increasingly bizarre gigs, Shane and Paddy were drawn towards careers in film, leaving Nick to pursue a life of making music. After serving time with Burton's best known exports The Telescopes (latterly Unisex), Nick contributed scores to some of Shane's movies, including A Room For Romeo Brass and Dead Man's Shoes, under a new moniker The Leisure Society.
