I first got to know of them through fellow musicians - I'd never seen them on TV, heard them on the radio or spotted anything in the press about them. Eventually, some mates were off to see them at a gig in Lewes, so I went along - and was knocked out by their musicianship, style, humour, presentation and the music itself. (This was at the time when they'd put out the "EPOnymous" and "Burlesque" albums and were about to release "Matachin"). They were very refreshing - and bloody good entertainment. Lewes Town Hall was packed out and, by the end, there were masses of people dancing in front of the stage, having a whale of a time. And the Harveys was very tasty as well!
