Growing Old Disgracefully
"Our sound has been described by several people as Warren Zevon fronting Guns N Roses. Our music is fairly varied ranging from nu-country tinged balladry to metallic rockers."
Andrew Ian Dodge: Andrew is a 40 year old American expat living and working in London. He is a writer, author, novelist, blogger, music critic and computer games consultant . He has been writing Cthulhu mythos stories for many years and has written an Idiots Guide to the genre. 1 October 2004 saw the publication of his latest collection of mythos short stories and novellas entitled Gathering Dark and other tales, iUniverse. Andrew has been (as Marty Dodge) a metal d.j, as well as a music and game critic. He has, in various guises, starred in a short film (http://homepage.mac.com/lagwolf/fallen/) and has made various television and radio appearances.John Haithwaite: John started learning Piano from age five. He gave up those lessons at thirteen, deciding that classical piano was “boring” and “learnt” to play piano. Received schooling at Shrewsbury where he took part in multiple European music tours to Venice, Berlin, Hamburg and the South of France playing Percussion, Bass Guitar, Keyboards and Vocals. John left Shrewsbury and went on to Leeds University where he got into a band called “The Recliners” playing Drums. He really wants to beat his “record” of 3000 audience through this bandJohn, after Uni decided that he was fed up with being part of the Rhythm Section and taught himself to play Blues Harmonica. He has jammed on stage with people such as Buddy Guy, Sweetleaf, and Roadhouse. Then he moved to London, where he attempted to live life without a Piano before he discovered a beat-up upright in the Alexander Pub in Wimbledon. Derek, the Landlord left him play. Several years later, in a late night gaming session with Andrew, he “discovered”, after years of taking out his angst on his piano, that he could, in fact, write original music, so Growing Old Disgracefully was, if not born, given the wings to fly. A few more sessions and he realized that he had met his lyricist.He currently runs an IT Consultancy business.The rest will be history……Mitch Benn: Mitch joined the band after offering to help us with some guitar work and, after he saw our music, wanting to be part of creating a great band. Mitch is one of the most sought-after acts on the comedy circuit. He is widely acknowledged as one of the best writer/performers of comic songs in the UK. Mitch began his comedy career in Edinburgh in 1994. He moved to London in 1996 and quickly established himself as a comedy club "headliner" as well as a favourite on the university circuit.Mitch is a regular writer and performer on "The Now Show" for BBC Radio 4 and "It's Been a Bad Week" for BBC Radio 2. His successful second series of the Radio 4 show, "Mitch Benn's Crimes Against Music" is being broadcast during 2005. In 2003, Mitch formed the band Mitch Benn & The Distractions with Kirsty Newton and Tash Baylis. After a successful run at the 2003 Edinburgh Fringe, they took up in residency in October 2003 at The Bedford in Balham. Mitch Benn & The Distractions completed a successful national tour in autumn 2004, to coincide with the release of their new album, "Too Late To Cancel". More info can be found on his website www.mitchbenn.comTom Burroughes: Tom is a 38 year old British guy who has been in love with music, including rock music, all his life. A journalist by trade, Jon is also a keen sailor, polemicist, and writer. My early favourite musical inspirations are Marillion, JJ Cale and Stevie Ray Vaughan. Tom co-wrote the song ‘Movin’ In’ sung by Mitch Benn, Andrew and John.Rob Mallows: Rob is a communications professional who fulfilled a youthful fantasy by buying himself a bass guitar.Kim Benson: Actress, wife to Andrew and co-lead.
