Vehicle for the song writing talents of John Kelcher and
Blair Parks.
The bands line-up featured:
Blair Parkes - Guitar / Vocals
John Kelcher - Guitar / Vocals
Bert Aldridge - Drums
Brett Aldridge - Bass
The band formed in 1990 with Parks and Kelcher working
on songwriting in Kelcher's central city flat, each taking
turns at drums, bass, and guitar.
Bert Aldridge joined on drums and the band began performing
as a 3 piece, some songs performed without bass.
Brett Aldridge joined the line-up and Creeley undertook
a series of demo recordings at Redd Acoustics studios.
These recordings were never released.
A further series of recordings was undertaken at Fish Street
Studios with Tex Houston. One track appearing on the Good
Things compilation, the others going toward a series
of self-released tracks the band produced.
The band were hard workers on their music but their sound
was a little out of sync with that of the current scene
in Christchurch so the band found it hard going to find
an audience for their melodic and sometimes quirkily British
songs.
The band may have disbanded.
