After meeting during a weekly acoustic Open Mic Night at the University of Sussex, John Fitzpatrick and Steve Boniface began playing and writing together soon after, specialising in self-penned, upbeat songs and offbeat covers. The pair were part of indie rock band 'Johnny Fitz Promotion', playing gigs along the South Coast and in London, but after a year or so missed their acoustic roots and split from the group.After playing as a duo for 8 months the band expanded to include Jo Walters on piano and Pete 'Panache' McFarlane on drums.
With a mix of upbeat acoustic music, unusual takes on well known artists and audience focused shows, they are gathering a following which they hope will continue to grow and grow. 2008 started with amazing success in the 'Beat the Mix' chart which Les Valentine stormed, holding the #1 slot for weeks at a time. Now they invite you on their journey as they continue to develop their own unique mix of pop, rock, silliness, offbeat covers, not writing a set list and the odd 'your mum' joke.
