Brobed
Stils Current Line Up (2004) :
Brodie
Mauluka : Lead guitar and vocals
Brodie has been a member of a number of top bands in
his native
countries of Zimbabwe and Malawi.
Playing in the top stadiums and hotels, as well as being
voted one of the
most popular singers in Malawi on a number of occasions.
A fantastic guitarist together with his trademark, warm
and gritty vocals,
He has been a gigging musician since the late sixties.
A loveable and
charismatic character, who knows how to entertain a
crowd!
Stuart
Jebbitt : Bass guitar and vocals
A classically trained pianist and singer, ex singer
of No Excuses and
ex bass player of the London based indie rock band,
Little Stabs of Happiness.
Stuart has been a semi pro musician since 1991. Uncharacteristically
extrovert
for a bass player, a little wacky, he loves to jump
about a bit and not take things
too seriously! Stuart is descended from a 13th Century
cattle thief!!
(you can check his genealogy site at www.moonroller.com/jebbitt)
Contact Stuart on: stuartjebbitt@hotmail.com

Phil Mansfield : Drums and backing vocals
A very talented drummer and percussionist,
who has toured the united states as well as Italy (he
is half Italian).
He has recently invested in a new drum kit -
even bigger than the last one if that were possible!
Ron Leeson: Keyboards
The deceptively youthful keyboard wizard has been playing
in bands
since the 60s. A most welcome addition to the Brobed
line-up,
he can produce anything from a growling Hammond, Rocking
Piano,
or a Steel band!

Stuart Rost : Deputy Drummer
Stuart
is our regular deputy drummer.
After starting out as the drummer in No Excuses
he went on to play in a number of popular local bands
including Chinwag and Moonroof.
Dominic
Bon da Souza Pernes: Saxophone
A very experienced and busy musician who endeavours
to play as many
of the Brobed gigs as his diary allows.
Dominic is an ex- member of the seventies band ‘Goldie’
who had a big hit single ‘Making up again (after breaking
up again)’
(ask your mum!). He's the only band member whose appeared
on 'Top of the Pops', not to mention being a centrefold
in 'Jackie' magazine!
We always love to see him as he is one of the most outrageous
and funny characters you’ll ever meet.
A great story teller and a lovely bloke.
Gone but
not forgotten.......
Andy
Leeson : Rhythm, Lead and Slide Guitar
Andy played slide guitar in Brobed between 1999-2003.
He's excellent slide
playing can be heard of the 'Good Intent' CD.
Kris Bediacko - Lead Guitar
Probably
one of the best guitarists ever to come out of Ghana,
Kris decided to leave the band at the end of 1998 to
pursue
his own African influenced rock compositions.
Perfoming with his own band, Alien Culture,
he appeared at WOMAD. He is now involved in drumming
workshops for
kids. Kris stills comes and guests with Brobed from
time to time and these
special gigs are worth looking out for.
