The early events were hosted by the house band ‘Gravy Tram’ featuring Pat Sims then later ‘Anaconda’ featuring Jorge Brontes.

With the need to release more electric sounds he built ‘David Bath & the Hot-Tubs’ with Gerry Andrew (People I love) and Nathan Rowland (Tundrel).

David and Gerry have been jamming and crafting songs together for fun for many years. Looking for group, Gerry suggested they nick drummer Katharine Hagan from People I love to form the back line for their music. They found that chemical spark, In their spare time they have been creaing tunes together since. These guys cherish and deliver a tidy alternate rock style with some punchy, blues, surf edge feel numbers at the right junctions.
