Phil is the only original member of the PK´s and can now be considered a veteran of over 1000 gigs standing(and shaking his tambourine!). His favourite artists are The Beatles, Elvis Costello and The Electric Light Orchestra. As well as fronting the band, Phil's other passions in life are Hartlepool United Football Club and collecting small round pieces of black plastic, with holes in the middle. You'll find him at a Charity Shop near you.
The second longest-suffering PK, Graeme joined up in the mid 90's and has been strumming his stuff ever since. When he's not plugging in his Fender, Graeme enjoys bird-watching and country walks, plus lighting fires in his garden. His favourite musical acts are Status Quo and Jethro Tull, who like his good self are still going strong!
When “Lord” John was called in as an emergency almost 8 years ago, little did he know that it would lead to a career as Skin-basher for Hartlepool's hardest-working band. Still playing his original Ludwig drum-kit he bought in 1974 as a small boy (ha-ha!), John's favourite band are legendary blues-rockers Free, indeed he plays the part of Free Drummer Simon Kirke in a tribute band. John shares Phil's passion of vinyl, only he collects BIG round pieces of plastic, and supports The Boro.
Headlander Gav joined the band nearly 5 years ago and immediately “Clicked-In” with Drummer John like a nice piece of Laminate Flooring! Currently the owner of a vintage Gibson Bass with knobs on, Gav´s melodic style and cheeky grin has made him a big favourite with the band´s Female Fan.
