the easy tigers
Mal Darwen – upright bass and guitar
Over the past several years I’ve been lucky to have been musically involved as a guitarist and bassist (amongst other instruments) with a variety of artists, from straight up folk/country music through world beats and grooves, ambient chilled electronica and back round to more singer songwriters.

Dzal Martin – guitar
Dzal used to front his own band No Dice.  These days he's happy to tour the world and work with the likes of The Equals, Tom Robinson, Van Morrison and Meatloaf to name but a few.  From 2002 until 2007 he played in the Terry Reid band performing at some major UK venues including WOMAD, Ronnie Scott's, Glastonbury and many other festivals.
He plays lead guitar with a particular liking for slide and dobro and does it so well that Eric Clapton once paid tribute to him in a track on his Slowhand album, 'Peaches and Diesel '.

Sandira – percussion
From New Zealand, Sandira is a brilliant multi- percussionist with Arabic leanings in rhythms and a deep love of Indie, and new wave song structure. She grew up playing percussion with The Shamen, Loop Guru and William Orbit.
Will Spurling – drums
Will Spurling began playing drums at age 8 having private lessons till the age of 16.  Brought up on jazz and jazz fusion as a youngster by his musician parents Will spent his teens discovering The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, Steely Dan and The Police, Nick Drake, Neil Young, James Brown and Otis Redding.  This became his main foundation until discovering Drum&Bass, Breakbeat, Ska, Reggae, Dub and Motown.  Will has not been out of a band since age 12 and has been fortunate to collaborate with many different musicians in these styles of music.
