Improvised and chopped, dubbed and delayed and twisted. Flute by Matt Case, strangled guitar by Cass. Have fun with the Speccy White Boys.

NEEB have played with many lineups over the years, but the five key band members have been creating music together for over a decade. Also known as ‘the speccy white boys’; Andy Wain (analogue synthesizers and effects), Mark Hand (analogue synthesizers, Rhodes and effects), Mark Lloyd (drums) Peter Casson (guitar) and Tony Waite (bass) have a natural creative connection that fuels a great proliferation of original jams and tunes. 

NEEB have a fair few things to shout about…

40,000 downloads of their mega hits ‘Waxed’ and ‘Tof Gunk’ in Japan via the Toryumon label, a performance at In The City urban music festival (Manchester) and an appearance at Glastonbury (featuring White Negroes vocalist Ian Monaghan) supporting The Egg, Gong and the legendary Rolf Harris! 

The electricity meter does not run out of 50p’s there… NEEB celebrated their 10th year by headlining the Chill Out Tent at Solfest Festival in 2010 playing an epic 90 minute set; amongst the likes of James, The Magic Numbers and Alabama 3.

As a follow-up NEEB played the well respected and expanding Willowman Festival on Saturday 18th June 2011, and they were pleased to join many other bands from Hartlepool playing the same festival.

Since 1999, NEEB’s music has evolved from electronica through to drum & bass, break-beat, funky house, deep house, techno and jazzy-breaks. With a sound somewhere between Nightmares On Wax and Underworld their style is definitely left of centre and eclectic in taste.

The band emerged from the electronic outfit ‘Manitou’ who’s tracks were released on the Experiment Collective Intelligence compilation CD and vinyl EP Module’s One & Two alongside Hidden Agenda (Metalheadz). This very successful release managed to export the band’s music across the world, particularly the Far East and America, in addition to providing the foundation for the subsequent band, NEEB.

NEEB have released music on the Uptown Café Compilation with Toryumon, Sounds from the Funky Underground Compilation with Chocolate Fireguard / Vinyl Assassins (home to successful soul/funk outfit Kava Kava), and their self-released album Northern Electric.

NEEB have played their fusion of beats, breaks and electronica to crowds at Glastonbury, Moles Club [Bath], Maze Club [Nottingham], Timeless Festival [Huddersfield] supporting Zion Train and Pee-Wee Ellis, Lift Festival [Manchester] and the totally cool Telfords Warehouse [Chester].

“Kicking in with a bad¬ass break-beat, NEEB delivers hip swinging beats and acidic electronica.” (MIXMAG)
