| Remnants are a three piece blues-based band from the Midlands. The band members were all in the successful blues group Gasoline which disbanded in the late 1980s. For the next 20 years the group went their separate ways to follow their individual musical directions. Following a successful reunion of three of the group's original members it was decided that they should reform under a new name but with their original musical roots at the forefront. The line-up of the band has recently changed with bass guitarist Paul Haines moving on to be replaced by Wolverhampton bassist Jim Cooper. Paul Gooderham and Steve Jack still remain the driving force behind the band and hopefully will be adding a percussionist to line up in the near future. Remnants play a rich mix of original music dominated by electro-acoustic guitars, harmonica and vocal harmonies. Their material has its roots in a variety of styles with a strong emphasis on rhythm and blues. Their set also includes carefully chosen standards rearranged to suit the group's style. |
