Skip McDonald - Skip McDonald IS Little Axe. originally from Dayton, Ohio Skip played the blues from the age of 8 (1957), although by the time he was 12 years old he had opted to perform doo-wop. Along with bassplayer Doug Wimbish and drummer Keith LeBlanc formed the house band for the pioneering rap label Sugar Hill, providing the music for some of the most seminal records of the era by Grandmaster Flash, Afrika Bambaata et al. From there he worked closely with Adrian Sherwood on many of projects for the On-U Sound label, as well as spearheading the band Tackhead and working with Living Colour. He has been the prime mover behind Little Axe since around 1992, the debut album "Wolf That House Built" was a personal take on blues and dub, and was released to critical acclaim in 1994. Skip has continued to fuse blues and electronic music into this decade. Along with Skip we welcome back Rupert Orton from Not The Same Old Blues Crap (www.punkrockblues.co.uk) who will talking about the month-long Spitz Festival of Blues which will feature Little Axe among a large and diverse range of shows.

we also welcome country singer-songwriter Hayes Carll - this 28-year-old Texan has recently issued his second album 'Little Rock' which true to his maverick mentality was released on his own Highway 87 label - a relentless gigger, Hayes has been over here for a short tour with Buddy Miller and has a solo London show following this radio session (1/3) at the Luminaire in Kilburn - a London show with Buddy Miller is on thursday (2/3) at Bush Hall. www.hayescarll.com www.myspace.com/hayescarll

Fupper is the sole work of Simon Hughes (ex-Stanton) - found sounds, atmospheric curios rub shoulders with crackling tape loops, fragile guitars counterpoint these lo-fi sounds. lovely new single 'Show Me Your Hands' just released on Jonson Family.
