Brad Dear aka 'Spike' - Born 29th October 1994
Singer, song writer and guitarist Formed the Brad Dear band in August 2012 Brad is a full-time musician "I have been singing and song writing since as long as I can remember, I'm a self-taught musician who can play the guitar and harmonica and my aim is to soon learn the banjo" Brads favourite bands are 'The Levellers, The Clash, Green Day, Bob Marley & The Wailers' to name just a few When you listen to Brad you will start to hear elements of his influences from 'Neil Young, Bob Marley, The Clash and The Levellers' and that's just the tip of the ice berg As a band I would have to say my favourite Track has to be 'Special Brew' the track is about running away and I often feel that as many do...that I want to escape and run away Some amusing facts about Brad - Brad loves JRR Tolkien to the point of becoming a nerd. Also one a night of fun and drink he was seen so unaware he ended up walking into a pond Brads main interests outside the band are doing magic tricks, spinning fire, maintaining his beard, being involved with Green Peace and he loves collecting guitars, banjos and mandolins |
