Another drummer flies the nest… bon voyage Charlie!

Dear Birds,

Ok… we’ve been putting off this news for sometime now as, well, we’re gutted. Here goes…

Charlie is leaving the birds to go travelling around the world after he completes his degree this Summer. We have a mere month left with his awesome drumming skills until he skiddadles back to the Isle of Wight to begin planning his round-the-world trip. It’s been an amazing year with him and we will be so very sad to see him go. :(

If you want to catch our last shows with him they are the 13th April @ PsychoSocial in Brighton (with Pink Narcissus) and 27th April @ The Purple Turtle in London (with Joe Black and Ribbon). We are going to party hard (as usual) so come join us and see him off by buying him a drink!

If you can’t make it to the shows, and would like to continue to keep in touch with Mister Reith-Pert he has a tumblr blog here and another band, Godard here for you to listen to.

We have a photo tribute for him, the highs and lows of Charlie’s time with us. It’s been amazing. We are going to miss you so much! Bon Voyage!!!

Charlie’s amazing dress sense never failed to amuse Garry


Doing what he does best. And with smoke machines…


Chilling with Spence in the USA


Getting cosy with Ronald


Pretending he’s a badass


Evil snare face


Charlie was always keen on the DIY


Charlie never properly embraced the steampunk look


OMG it’s Philippa 2.0!


Bye bye Charlie, we’ll miss you x x x x
