Piers
Partridge |
Vocals,
Guitar, Dobro, Ukelele, Charango,
Banjo, Tin Whistle, Mbira. Chief bottle washer and cook for the Band,
the Pindrop is Piers' idea and wish come true. He writes music for
Film and TV, Steve Irwin being his best known Client. |
Amy Schroeter |
Amy
is a part timer at the moment becuase of her studies in Cardiff. She's
a natural untrained singer who can push out a Country song like she's
been doing it for years. Big favourite with our audiences, full of
vitality. |

Wendy
Partridge
|
Our
very own Rock & Roll chick, Wendy travelled the world with Shriekback
alongside Inxs before settling in Long Ashton. A true Pro. If she
could just get her driving license sorted. |
Phoebe
Partridge
|
Vocals.
Grew up on Cemaes Head, a wild headland
in West Wales, daughter of an equally wild acupuncturist. Sings like
she's been listening to Billy Holiday her entire life, cooks a great
stew and is no relation to the other Partridges in the Band.

Martin
Solomon |
Fiddle,
Guitar, accordion, Ukulele, Tin Whistle, SitarOud, Tambouras. Martin
plays almost every thing and plays it frighteningly well. He's been
threatening to learn banjo and show Piers how it should be done. He
does, however, drive a Maestro. |
Fiona
Andrews |
Vocals.
Put together the first ever Pindrop with Piers and has been singing
ever since. Has a clarity and accuracy in her singing that can peel
the skin off a lime. Fi is married to Piers and steadfastly refuses
to take the Partridge surname. So she is related. |

Henry
Shafto
|
Percussion.
Henry is a recent arrival in the Pindrop Band and plays both kit and
percussion. He's well known in Bristol jazz circles for the sensitivity
of his touch both on drums and also on Vibes. During the day he puts
on different clothes and lectures at UWE in Urban Studies. |
lizzie
|
Double
Bass. Spotted by Henry over a year ago playing next to some railings
in Fishponds. In her other life Lizzie can be found making candles,
stained glass, pottery and other crafty thangs. And amazingly she
lives local to Wraxall which seems like a blessing indeed. Great feels,
great musicality. |

kev
griffiths
|
Acoustic
guitar, Kev sits in the Pindrop Club engine room, pumping out solid
punchy chords for the rest of us to ride on. Only recently moved to
Bristol from West Wales and is unrecognizeable in red and black leathers
when he's out on his super-bike. |

Band makeup artist

faces of the Pindrops for their Village Hall extravaganzas. Closely
