Upon his return to the UK, he has led the Graham Clews Band for over 20 years and has been a member of local groups SheBangg and Moonshine Runners amongst others.
Rob Cooper is best known as half of the popular duo Cooper & Davies who came together for their love of Rootsy Americana and vocal harmonies. They were once introduced by ‘Whispering’ Bob Harris on the BBC introducing Stage at The Long Road Festival, played with O2 in London and are regulars at the Dartmouth Musical Festival. He has also lent his bass skills to Booyaka, Moonshine Runners and The Beautiful Ways.
Leyton Burgess has been a regular drummer on the Shropshire music scene for over 30 years, providing rhythm and backing vocals to well-known local bands Booyaka (who once performed a mini- tour of Barcelona) The Graham Clews Band, SheBangg and The Beautiful Ways.
