The Masonics

Suit Yourself Presents:

THE MASONICS

Centering on five towns situated in Kent, U.K., the Medway scene was born in the early '80s with a defiantly lo-fi take on '60s garage/beat, seasoned with a dash of classic rock & roll and lots of punk attitude. Arguably the scene's most famous son was the prolific Billy Childish, and alongside his Milkshakes/Headcoats and the Prisoners, the Masonics remained one of the most enduring and popular bands spawned from the Medway. Not only can Mickey Hampshire (guitar/vocals) and Bruce Brand (drums) boast service in a whole host of Medway bands (including the aforementioned Milkshakes and Headcoats), bassist John Gibbs' CV is equally impressive and includes time in the Wildebeests (another garage supergroup) and legendary Edinburgh timewarp beat merchants the Kaisers. There's no disputing the fact that the Masonics are U.K. garage royalty.
