The MFISH are a rock band made up of 3 chaps who love the British pop, rock and song-writing tradition. Influences include Soundgarden, Jeff Buckley, Living Colour, Led Zeppelin, Nick Drake, the Damned, Queen, the Manics, as well as music outside the ‘rock/pop’ realm.

The MFISH are based in Reading and will be gigging regularly in the Berks / Oxon / Bucks / Hants / Surrey / London area from 2006. Demo recordings of 5 songs are available.

Jamie (guitar, voice), from the Isle of Wight, has played with musical outfits of the rock, jazz, folk and orchestral variety in both the UK and Hungary. These days Jamie gives the MFISH both thoughtful charm and aggressive doom.

Carl (bass, voice, keyboards), hails from Gothenburg, Sweden’s capital of both classical music and heavy/death metal, has performed with outfits of all descriptions: heavy metal, function bands, crooners; has done session work and been the musical director of the Gothenburg Opera House. Carl gives the MFISH a solid, throbbing bass base, complete with occasional screams.

Bruce (drums) progressed from trashy new wave-inspired colleges bands with unmentionably bad names to being a core member of British hard pop band MINX during a longer-than-expected stay in Tokyo. Bruce now brings bouncy pop sensibility to the MFISH.
