Real name: Rich Buchanan, Lew Dyer, John Wallis & Chris Ballard

Effective period / Period of releases: 2006 - 2008

The band’s name is a quote from a glamour model
overheard entering a strip club. "This place is so
rank deluxe" she said; apparently she meant the height
of scum. Drawn to the multiple implications, they took
the phrase as their own. The band comprises four 20
somethings from south east London; Rich Buchanan on
Lead Vocals, Lew Dyer on Lead Guitar, John Wallis on
Bass, and Chris Ballard on Drums. Lew and Rich grew up
on the same council estate in Thamesmead, south east
London, and the bands current line up formed early in
2005. The band refer to their music as SEWAGE - “a
sonic picture of council estate youth”.
