The Mams

When Jon 'Earl' Grey and A.T. Sharpe met in the summer of 2006 they found they had a few things in common. John Peel had played their records in the past, they still had their own hair and teeth and they were untethered by responsibility. And so, after a few lagers round the clubs and bars of a scruffy South Wales town, they set about writing a disco pop bar-room rock soundtrack to their shallow yet pleasureable lives.

Their debut album, 'Wam Bam!' was produced by Charlie Francis (REM, High Llamas, Robyn Hitchcock, though sounding like NONE of these!) and is a 'glorious row' packed with poignancy, joy, handclaps, energy, trumpets, guitar solos, whistling, grooves, string synth stabs, slap bass and some very high singing indeed.

The Mams line-up is completed by Pete 'Son Of Ivor' Mason on drums, Dan 'The Devil' Harris on bass and Andrew 'Chocolate' Harries on keyboards.
