A Liverpool-based band formed in 2004, The Cuckolds burned brightly for a few years but ultimately achieved very little - other than a few great recordings, documented here, and the vague and hazy collective memory of a somewhat raucous live show that managed to dazzle only a few lucky punters in Liverpool and a little bit beyond.
Songwriter Tom Brookes teamed up with the then cream of Liverpool's musicians, including US born Trevor Gerrard (Ezra Bang & The Hot Machine, Thunderbird Gerrard), Steve Pilgrim (Paul Weller, John Power), Luke Thomson (The Stands), Hugo Harrison (Peter & The Wolf) and keyboard and guitar whizz John Sealey.  
Lauded by producer and mix-master Mike Crossey, the band truthfully had more potential than common sense and after their climactic stella performance at Liverpool Music Week in November 2006, died a sorrowful, slow and painful death. In part, due to several band members finding other, more financially rewarding and secure musical commitments; and also due to the unreliability of a band leader who struggled with lifestyle choices.
  
Tom Brookes disappeared from the scene in 2007 and now lives in rural Ireland (http://www.thomasbrookes.com), Steve Pilgrim performs with Paul Weller and is a recording artist in his own right (http://www.stevepilgrim.co.uk), Trevor also is writing, recording and performing (http://soundcloud.com/thunderbird-gerard) and Hugo is committed to his first love, Jazz. 
One can only speculate how glorious a full length Cuckolds album with Mr Crossey might've sounded. 
Tom and Luke are currently compiling an archival collection 'Cuckology' that will be available 2018.
