I think it's Dave Wakeling performing under that name, not sure if he's doing it with anyone else from the old band. Pretty sure I asked about them on this board a year or two ago, and Ollie said something like that. I believe he lives in California -- Wiki says San Fernando Valley, but I thought it was closer to Monterey Bay -- and comes through here frequently. I had tickets to see them in Felton in late June, but the show was canceled because he blew his ACL. The email I got said:
To my fans, I’m sorry to say while I was touring, I tore my achilles! I’m going to have a full recovery but will need surgery and be off my dancing legs for a short while. We’re sorry for the inconvenience but will have to reschedule your show. Thank you for your support and keep an eye on the calendar for a new date!
