On drums, Thomas Idris Jackson. Highly regarded and extremely talented drummer straddling many genres from Prog Rock with The Emerald Dawn to jazz with Spyralz
On vocals, Andy Milsom. A relative newcomer to West Cornwall with a country rock, soul and funk background. Former member of Hunted and Ragged Union, both popular Bristol-based bands.
