“The Evan Lyric Sound”

The boys Ian Parsons, Graham Knight and lead singer Geoff Barber, from Tamworth, Ian Bibby, who comes from Grendon, and Gerald Palmer and Bob Ball, from Atherstone, have been securing much-sought-after bookings with named groups.

During the last month they have been billed with radio, TV and recording stars The Peddlers and the Chicken Shack and on December 12 will appear with Scott Walker, the American singing star now living in this country.

Earlier this month the group had to postpone a three-week tour of Germany due to heavy prior commitments and early next year are to audition for “Opportunity Knocks”.

Pictured as they take a welcome break are (left to right): Ian Bibby (Sax); Ian Parsons (Drums); Graham Knight (Bass); Gerald Palmer (Lead Guitar); Geoff Barber (Lead Singer) and Bob Ball (Sax).
