About The Nephrons.

The Nephrons were born in about 1982 when myself and two friends (Carl and Mark) began playing guitar with each other in the front bedroom of Carl`s house. We didn`t know we were called the Nephrons at the time, we just thought that we were going to take over the world with RAWK. We`ve been playing together since then with others occasionally popping in and out (Kitson was a drummer for a while) and have played in other bands (The Rachel Fields, Stink, Her Majesties Tax and income) throughout the years, but we always end up coming back together. The Nephrons name was picked from a number of choices (Mark and his mates, the Glitter twins, now you can figure why we went with Nephrons) in about 2006. We thought that the Doves had the right idea, swapping instruments so nobody playing one particular instrument.

Mark De. Drums, backing vocals, bass guitar, rhythm guitar.
Carl.D. Lead and rhythm guitar, Bass guitar, Mandolin.
Me. Vocals (of a fashion), rhythm and lead guitar, drums, Banjo, piano, bass guitar.
harmonica.

Our songs are good honest music, but here`s the thing, we`ve all got kids (one of each all of us) under six, so practising and playing is really difficult. So that`s why I have created this Blog. To get the music out there.
