Skeleton jelly
Formed in 2007 and originally a 3 piece, the two founding members and nucleus of "The Skellies" are Dave Harris and Dave Mace. Having tried different formats and members until settling (very happily!) with the current line up Skeleton Jelly promise an all out, no fuss, good ole' rock and roll show.

Dave Harris leader and catalyst of the band once of "roshambo" and "The Roofs" is a lively front man (some would say mental) who can also pick up a axe and bang out some riffs. Influenced by styles such as Artic monkeys and Foo Fighters is always up for some high energy live shows.

Dave Mace, bassist, formerly of Bad Habit has Rock as his original influences (Zeppelin, GnR) but has brought a level of funk into his playing from bands like Red Hot Chili Peppers. Always keen to try new things (except singing) enjoys bands like the Arctics and is seriously moved when Muse are involved!

In January 2009, looking to let Dave H off the leash a bit more as the front man, Lloyd "Lloydie" Swinton joined as lead and rhythm guitarist. Before joining Skeleton Jelly Lloydie had been involved behind the scenes with some big name acts (Diamond Head and Thin Lizzy) and is more than comfortable being in front of the amps for a change rocking out. A big change from some of his other bands, his tastes range from an alphabetical AC/DC to ZZ Top. A pretty versatile player - just don't ask him to play any Britney.

Andy King joined in 2009 on drums. Andy brings a rockier drumming style, backing vocals, and great energy to the band. A very good drummer and a great find.

The Skellies have a Karma code, "what you put in you get out". So you should all be in for a great night every time.
