Born in 1973, Revere age 10 enjoyed the Electro and early Rap scene, and was fascinated by the whole hip-hop and graffiti movement. At 13 he was introduced to Motown, Soul, Funk and disco and began collecting old vinyl. Clubbing in the 80s & 90s introduced him to House music, and at 16 he bought two turntables and began mixing old vinyl with new. He threw House Parties and DJ’d at every opportunity and eventually landed slots at Zap club in Brighton and a residency at Leeds University where he was studying art. Being surrounded by creative people, convinced him in 1995 that he should study at the Gateway School Of Music in Kingston. There he learnt production and recording techniques and built his own studio. Since then he has featured on compilation albums and released EPs on the Session Recordings label, and most recently completed his current album Jack Lead plug in.

 

David Watts is a classically trained musician. He grew up playing in bands and listening to a mix of Skiffle, Rock 'n Roll, Be-bop Jazz, Latin and sixties Soul Music. During the Seventies he became a graduate of The Guidhall School of Music. At the same time he was drawn to the disco and funk scene, and worked in London's West End as a session musician cutting records, and playing on film and TV sessions. He has also worked as a composer and conductor with a number of different orchestras including the LSO. He recorded his 1st symphony ‘Metropolis’ with the Royal Ballet Sinfonia in 2002 on Sanctuary Classics. He has written and produced a top 40 single, and released three solo albums of ambient music. Meeting Revere opened the door to the rediscovery of past influences and the development of an new stlye of writing.

  Together Revere/Watts formed, developed and produced Jack Lead and created the new album plug in which lies at the heart of what they both know and love to be great music.
