Name: Blu (Lead vocals)

History: I've always been a pain in the ass, but previous bands haven't been local to Swindon. When I'm not behind the mic, you can find me heckling from the bar; skulking round the food table; or on the dancefloor. Or chances are, queuing for the toilet. The trials of being a girl....

Musical influences:It's easier to list what I don't like. And that's not much.

What you bring to the band: Boobs and Cattitude. Occassionally food.

Life besides music: There's life outside music? I'm a geek girl, and proud of it. Don't stand too close, it's contagious.

Life quote: "My fault, my failure, is not in the passions I have, but in my lack of control of them" - Jack Kerouac
