Captain Jack joins Hawthorn
Wales' premiere covers band joins our office. After a successful launch January 2010, the band is already re-booked at every venue. 

Listen to lead singer KT Now imagine this with a band of brilliant musicians who are able to reproduce these sounds and harmonies across every musical spectrum from Rock to all-time classics!

Spectacular new additional format launching mid 2010 featuring Sean Maloney with the band for selected dates.
Watch K.T. in action with Sean

Watch Brett the drummer when he was with Ether, they were a bit special, to say the least. To some older people looking at this site, does this band remind you of "They Iveys" from Swansea, later to become "Badfinger"
