SHARK Attack will be hoping to make jaws drop with the quality of their musicianship when they play at the Queen's Head, Wolverley tomorrow night.

The quintet combines both young and seasoned players, featuring music ranging from soul to funk and including jazz and blues. Their repertoire includes arrangements of old standards.

Drummer, Bev Smith, has rubbed shoulders with well known figures including Robert Plant and Paul Young.

He started playing in 1972 with various local club and dance bands and had two years tuition by Led Zeppelin's drummer, John Bonham. In 1983, he joined the Honeydrippers, with Robert Plant and gigged with the Zeppelin front man over the next three years.

Towards the end of the 80s, he joined Stan Webb's Chicken Shack and also performed live with Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page.

Between the 1990s and recent years, he has been a studio session drummer and involved in several television and radio projects, as well as touring Europe and the United States with Chicken Shack and Joe Cocker.

Shark Attack's vocalist, Sally Haines, is a lyricist and songwriter, who has experience in radio and plays guitar and keyboards.

Guitarist Elmer O'Shea has been playing since the age of 14 in his first band, the Rockin' Orbits before joining Bonehead. His biggest success came as a member of Little Acre, who played alongside Phil Collins and Fleetwood Mac at the height of their fame.

Bill Gilbert, who plays bass, was a member of Second City Sound and released albums and singles during the 1960s. Another claim to fame is he won Opportunity Knocks four times.

The line-up is completed by guitarist, Phil Basterfield, who formed the band, Edwin Avenue, with Sally, in 1995. Although that band are still together, they are not playing gigs but they have recorded several CDs.

Phil and Sally write music for film and media under the title, HB Music, and record and produce bands as Basscamp Productions.
