Little Barrie is a three-piece band from Beeston, Nottinghamshire,
England,
since relocated to London.
The band consists of Barrie Cadogan (guitar and vocals), Lewis Wharton
(bass) and Billy Skinner (drums). Before Skinner, Wayne Fulwood was
playing drums and singing. On the first single, before Fulwood joined,
session drummer Chris Lee is featured. Their music could be described
as stripped-down soul-infused blues rock 'n' roll.
Little Barrie released their debut album, We
Are Little Barrie, in February 2005. It was recorded
over a series of 23 Wednesdays in Edwyn
Collins' studio.
Wayne left the band before the recording of their second
album. According to Lewis "Yeah, it was a surprise... I didn't think it
would ever happen. The constant touring was driving Wayne insane. He
was away from home a lot... It got to the point where we were about to
go the US to record the new album and it dawned on him that he'd be
away again, and that we would be touring it the year after that. So he
said he couldn't do it anymore."
Stand your Ground
was recorded between New York with Dan
The Automator on the producing skills and the help of Russell Simins (of Blues
Explosion) on drums and London with Mike "Prince Fatty"
Pelanconi as producer and new drummer Billy Skinner.
Barrie has performed on tour with Morrissey,
Primal
Scream and Saint Etienne as guest guitarist.
Billy Skinner is also playing with the Americana-oriented band
Elwood Grace.
