FACTORY Factory, a rock band originally formed in Hastings, UK, in the '70s, and re-formed in 2015, return with their new album, "Aiming High". Aiming High is an album with something for everyone - positive vibes, adventurous rock and catchy hooks, delivered with superb musicianship and vocals. The band members have been friends since teenagers, and after much success going their separate ways, (with Icehouse, Hazel O'Connor, Edgar Winter, Manfred Mann's Earth Band, plus co-writing John Farnham's You're The Voice), decided to reunite many years later. In their early days they were a busy touring band, supporting Fleetwood Mac, Status Quo, The Scorpions, Suzi Quatro, 10cc etc, and were the test band for Roger Daltrey's home studio, but they never made an album. All the original members are still there - TONY QUNTA - lead guitar, electric violin & vocals ANDY QUNTA - keyboards, electric 12-string guitar, vocals LAURIE COOKSEY - drums & vocals GEOFF "Jaffa" PECKHAM - bass & vocals plus Jaffa's replacement from '74-'76, bassist STEVE KINCH (from Manfred Mann's Earth Band) |
