Partners In Crime
History
The
original Partners in Crime were formed in the Eighties, featuring
Kev and Alec (we were very young)!
along with Rob Marston on Vocals, and Mark Bentley on Drums,
later joined by Bert Gould on Keyboards and Tracey Davies on
Backing Vocals.
A couple of years later the band changed it's name to Screen Hereos.
During
it's existence the band were an ever-present on the Birmingham
music scene, notching
up an enormous amount of gigs, developing a huge following and
supporting such well known
acts as Dr Feelgood and Ruby Turner.
After
a break of several years, Kev and Alec decided to form a covers
band.
They soon recruited Rich on Drums and Gilly Dangerous on vocals
and became the
Gilly Dangerous band.
The
GDB quickly established themselves as a quality covers band and
were regularly gigging
around the Midlands.
2007
saw Emma Skipp taking over Vocal duties and the band reverting to
the name of Partners in Crime.
The band have now gone from strength to strength, supplementing
their established pub circuit
with corporate gigs, parties and weddings.
Below is a selection of photographs from the old days.
