Chaingang

Chaingang is a group of three dudes and one dudette from Sydney, Australia. We've been making music together for two years and are currently finishing off some new tunes for our debut release coming out later this year. So far, we've played with some amazing bands, met a lot of fabulous people, recorded and played shows in the US, survived a real car crash as well as many metaphorical ones on our rocky road to international super-stardom. The only band all four of us love is Faith No More, but we can only dream of making music that majestic.

Southern Comfort

Two bands use this name. Martin Stone recorded a rare album called Southern Comfort with American blues harmonica player Walter ‘Shakey’ Horton when the legendary Chicago blues harpist visited the UK in 1968. Southern Comfort is a superb showcase for his talents, as well as those of bassist Jerome Arnold (from The Paul Butterfield Blues Band), drummer Jessie C. Lewis (Otis Rush) and trailblazing guitarist Martin Stone (Savoy Brown and Mighty Baby).
