ROB

RICH
Drummer & Cajonist
A drummer, percussionist and part time inventor from Sandiacre, Nottingham. Rich has been playing the Cajon (drum box) in the Burgundys since 2010. He also enjoys Mexican food, running and tapping on everything!
RICK
Bassist, Guitarist & Vocalist
How and why his passion for music started, simple, hearing "I am the walrus" when he was 12, Eureka! Endorsee of Burns guitars and instruments (Thanks Barry). Favourite snack, cheese on toast with Marmite "gotta love the Marmite". Enjoys going Glamping with his family. Pure "Rock n Roll"!
ROLAND
Guitarist, Bassist, Vocals & Pianist
Roland is a performer and teacher of music. Since early childhood he's had the privilege of connecting with countless numbers of people from all ages, backgrounds and walks of life through a shared love of music. This journey has taken him all over the world. It's been challenging, exhilarating and given him memories he'll treasure for the rest of his life. His influences range from Beethoven to The Beatles. He loves to play piano, guitar, bass (and sqaush!) He also loves to sing. Roland's favourite places are Japan & the sofa. He enjoys the odd whiskey or beer but will never say no to a cup of tea! (Rock n Roll habits die hard I guess!)
JOSH
Guistarist, Vocalist & Pianist
Josh is a musician, songwriter and composer from Nottingham, UK. Josh started playing piano at the age of 4 mostly due to boredom (Blue Peter isn't for everyone) and has since added guitar, drums, flute and violin to that last. He can be kept quiet with pizza and wine for a while until he finds an instrument to butcher a song or two on. Josh has recently starred in new TV pilot 'HOOD', a new dystopian twist on the Robin Hood story.
DREW
Drummer & Cajonist
Originally a drummer, but has now been promoted to playing a glorified tea chest (Cajon), a foot tambourine, a homemade foot operated bed spring mounted shaker and occasional backing vocalist. Drew is a curry monster, who loves eating pizza and there’s a special place in his heart for custard creams dunked in coffee. In his spare time he attempts to play badminton and is a keen cyclist.
