Jester Acoustics

Originally starting as a group of friends wanting to start a band who knew they were not the best musicians but still wanted to have fun with it. But that failed... damn Morrissons and Mustafa stealing our bassist :P It then changed to guitar lessons from Hogie to Kyle. Which with awesome chemistry and a shit lot of practice has turned in to a little two piece acoustic band. Although we are still looking to develop back in to a full band its still dandy just being us two. Both of us playing Acoustics with singing from Hogie. We know we aren't the best around but tbh we don't care :D

In May 1976 18-year-old Pauline Murray saw the Sex Pistols. Murray and her Ferryhill comrades became Pistols devotees, earning for themselves by late 1976 the title of 'Durham Contingent' (coined by the NME). Penetration soon began gigging and debuted on vinyl with their single, "Don't Dictate". The studio albums released were Moving Targets and Coming Up For Air and they have since released a Best of Penetration compilation album.

MINOTAURS

Originally birthing in 2006, South Shields sextet Minotaurs have been all too quiet for the past year or so. Luckily the bulk of that time has been spent writing, honing and recording their long-awaited debut album 'Eat yr Hate' in deepest Northumberland with Woodpigeon producer, Arran Fisher. Giving weight to their choice of name, as performances by the band became less frequent their mythology seemed to grow.
