Sunhouse (band)

The band consisted of Gavin Clark (vocals), Paul Bacon (guitar), Robert Brooks (bass) and Dominic Dillon (drums) with Tony Robinson and Oliver Jones supporting them onstage when during live performances.

Songwriter Gavin Clark originally met film director Shane Meadows when both were working at the Alton Towers leisure park.

The band signed a contract with Independiente Records and completed further soundtrack work for Meadows' feature-length debut, Twenty Four Seven.

[1] The limited edition Small Time EP and single "Monkey Dead", led them to the band's debut alnum, Crazy on the Weekend, which was released in 1998.

Their acoustic-based songs were augmented by washes of strings and organ, earning comparisons to Nick Drake, Tom Waits and Beth Orton.
