Artist History
The Peas started back in 1998 as a five piece consisting of Drums(Dean), Bass (Cam), Guitar(Matt) and Gene and Matty B on saxopohones. Eventually by the end of that year they got a full time singer(Mickey) and started to put it all together. Not long after that Dean (Drums) departed the band...???.... and the new drummer Leigh (Aww thats F@*%ED) Cope was called in. Leigh was with the band for just over a year when his commitments to his original band "BARKO" made him leave. Almost straight away into the band jumped the no other than Kevin "Flaadich" McFerran whos groove is just...SCHWEET. After a run of weekly gigs for around 2 months it was all starting to sound like a unit with the new drummer but the band thought something was missing, we need more PHATTNESS so just recently the band decided to get a keyboard player in (CHUBBA) and its working out great. Now it has an even PHATTER sound than before. They have played many good venues already in their short time around Melbourne such as the"Central Club", "Mayfields","Gee Bung Polo Club","Armadale Hotel","Barleycorn", and the "Prince Alfred" (Carlton) |
