“Imagine The Doors meet Siouxsie and the Banshees via Patty Smith…” Rob Eunson
“What a revelation! Reminiscent of early Pink Floyd in the Sid Barrett days” Mike Bisby
“The raw hard-edged sound and screaming guitars were light years away from psychedelia as I remember it and all the better for it! A new sound is among us!” Sheila Jones
“I loved the set to bits!…the feel was perfect.” Fred Gill
Loudhailer Electric Company are:
Lou Duffy-Howard – Psychedelic Singing, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar.
Former Planet Wilson resident and Red Guitars bassist, Lou loves bass guitar, singing and playing music, medieval buildings, and music from Jefferson Airplane and JAMC to Jordi Savall.
“Crazy-James-Chance-meets-Holger-Czukay…Lou’s bass playing is unbelievable – not just the tunes she invents, but the actual sound of her fingers hitting the strings, Mike Watt of Firehose is probably the only person who could match this” David Cavanagh, Sounds.
Jeff Parsons – Groovtastic Guitars, Electrifying Licks and Kaleidoscopic Shirts. With a background to match his amazing pink and orange slide guitar Jeff cut his teeth in cult outfits Bone and Dead Fingers Talk. Hanging out with Genesis P Orridge and influenced by The Who, Hendrix and American psychedelic bands, Jeff’s crazy upside down guitar style with hints of The Chameleons and The Church sends the Loudhailer Electric Company into orbit.
“Now there’s 3 bands! – The Pistols, the Fuck and Dead Fingers Talk!” Adam Ant.
Richard Duffy-Howard – Spoken Word Poetry, Reverberating Electric Guitar, Death Defying Acoustic Guitar, Bass, Big 6 Blues Harp. Ex space age trance world dub band Nazca Nine wordsmith and now one half of Rich and Lou’s Loudhailer. Poet, photographer and Primula auricula enthusiast – because every band needs one of these, right?
“Whoah man! You really blew the socks off those Ozric Tentacles!” Variant Eye
.
Rich Walker – Electronic/acoustic Drums Artist and Colossal Fills Specialist.
“Rich’s beautiful traditional hand crafted art takes you to the imaginary lakes and forests of your mind’s eye…and that’s even before he picks up his sticks” Red Herring
.
Amanda Lowe/Chris Heron – flaming fiddle
And if you’d like the trip to last a little longer, come with us to the lake at night…
