The Guy Hamper Trio was formed by Billy Childish, after a chat with his friend James Taylor (Hammond organ). They had played respectively in The Milkshakes and The Prisoners, often sharing the same bill in the early 80's. And indeed, Billy's blues ensemble: The Natural Born Lovers were the support act for the early shows of The James Taylor Quartet. The Guy Hamper Trio is: Billy Childish on guitar, his wife Julie on bass and Wolf on drums - who as it happens was the drummer in the original incarnation of JTQ - and of course features James Taylor on Hammond organ. The Guy Hamper Trio provide a bottom end, Blues-influenced instrumental mayhem for those unafraid of dirt, germs and true grime. With no particular wish other than to be recognised as the best at playing badly, they refuse to obey the usual rules of combat and music. Their first 45 (Polygraph Test / Sally Sensation) was released in 2009, followed by a full-length studio album, 'All The Poisons In The Mud', appearing, as if by magic, in 2022, followed by five 7 singles (via Damaged Goods and Spinout Nuggets), and also a new full-length album via Hangman Records, titled 'Man In The Mouth Of A Cave'. This fully-loaded twin-spin single includes two tracks; 'Dog Jaw Woman' and 'The First Creature Is Jealousy'. Once again, after consultation with experts in the field, it was decreed that these tracks needed to be on a 7 single, for the enjoyment of the Mods, jive experts, lost revellers and those prone to frequent discotheques throughout England, the UK, Europe, the USA, Indonesia and indeed Portsmouth!
