Rokhsan had been cutting Henry’s hair for as long as he cares to remember; Although not altogether comfortable with the arrangement Henry was too polite to say anything. Once they were old enough to play guitars, but too young to go out on a school night, they disrupted folk clubs from Whitstable to Workington with their Bleeding Hearts Country Mixtape Band. Ed and James spent their formative teenage years in a string of well meaning but unfortunately named shambolic punk bands. The story of how these four first met and started there never-ending tour of abandoned music halls is far too long to go into now but suffice to say that it involves a basement party, two boys in the same Belle and Sebastian t-shirt and a case of mistaken identity in the dark. They live (and sometimes work) in South London.
