Late last century, J was recruited by an ad in Drum Media, to play in a Ride covers band which eventually folded. G & J decided however to keep jamming occasionally. In 2002, with an affinity for obscure Donovan songs, the duo headlined the notorious "Being for the Benefit of Mr Holmes" to rapturous reviews, largely by drunken friends. Spurred on by this adoring fanbase, the duo became a 4 piece in 2003. The band launching itself as "High tide" at the heavy rock charity gig for Canteen at the 'Noona Bowlo. They were to be the "light relief at the other end of the hall whilst the "real" bands set up".Not only drawing praise from many a grey haired bowler, the band created enough of a vibe to have a decent crowd, full of the other bands, checking them out and nodding approvingly....as well as the crowd they rented. As per usual, after jamming for 6 months and then a gig, the tide eventually turned, leaving G & J to jam on. The bands name was taken from the crumbling, century old edifice that decorates the heart of bustling downtown Woonona. The bands next plans are to record in Abbey Road studios, Londonium, with John Leckie. When they win Lotto.
