FRANK - Encouraged out of early retirement in the late 90's , he has brought a different style of guitar playing to the band .His Knopfleresque leanings fits surprisingly well with this genre, he is definately an original 70's Strat man.

DAVE - First trumpet and City fan, music is in his family's life blood. Dave is always a driving force within the ranks of MB . The lynch pin of the band.

TREVOR -Mr Harmony knows every song ever written by anyone and has probably sung them. Joined as a stand in bass player and refused to leave!! Focal member, in tune structure and arrangement and master of the patter.

JOHN P - John's roots are in jazz but that does not impair his ability to provide the rock to which MB anchors its groove. Late of the Manic Stressed Teachers, his switch to soul has been seamless. With Graham and Frank the rhythm section can appear inked by thought alone.
