HENRY CLUNEY (of STIFF LITTLE FINGERS)
Henry’s stage banter with Irish humour and story telling in between songs is priceless. His infectious friendly personality shining through with everything he does. He put together Stiff Little Fingers in 1977 and played on all the seminal albums. After splitting in 1982 and reforming in 1987 Henry also played on Flags and Emblems and numerous live albums until 93 when the band’s manager told me my “services were no longer required!” The legend himself is bringing his songs and stories on tour this summer.

Chris Houston:
Canadian singer and guitarist Chris “Baby” Houston started his professional musical career near the end of the ’70s as a member of the Forgotten Rebels. While touring and recording with the rock group, Houston polished his talents and found his own strengths and weaknesses. Some of the albums he did with the Forgotten Rebels were In Love With the System, Tomorrow Belongs to Us, and This Ain’t Hollywood.
By the middle of the ’80s, Houston had given up the comfort of a group to go it solo. Some of his works found their way onto compilation albums in 1985 and 1986. During the latter year, he completed a full-length offering of his own, Hate Filled Man, released under Zulu Records. The tracks on the album received only moderate attention, and it turned out that the debut was Houston’s first and last solo contribution to the world of music.
Pete Lambert:
“Lucky” Pete Lambert – Drums
“Lucky” Pete Lambert has been a professional musician since 1979 when he joined the pioneering Punk band NFG, playing drums in his hometown of London, Ontario. In 1982, he moved to London, England and joined the notorious Punk band, Angelic Upstarts. For the next 12 years, he played in many different bands there, including the Ska bands the Trojans, Bad Manners and the legendary Rico Rodriguez. Lambert has toured all over Europe and Japan extensively and throughout Canada and the US as well. Moving back to Canada in 1994, he mostly has been playing with roots rocking band the Kensington Hillbillys and it’s sister band, the Parkdale Rebels. Now in his 21st year with the ‘Billys. Lambert resides in Hamilton where he now plays with the Hellbent Rockers and it’s sister band, the Trebletones. You’ll often find him DJing around town occasionally as well. Vinyl Rules!
