Originally from Grimsby Mick grew up in Dagenham, Essex where he experienced those magical early Rock ‘n’ roll years that eventually moulded his destiny. It was then that he met and formed his first group ‘The Teens’ with Rick Westward now famed guitarist with the ‘Tremeloes’.
Mick later became a ‘Tremeloe’ himself for a while and was instrumental in bringing ‘Silence Is Golden’ to their attention. He then went on to enjoy success with the ‘Symbols’ who’s record ‘Best Part Of Breaking Up’ stormed the U.K. charts before embarking on his first of many tours of America.
In the early 70’s he met John while playing in a local Pub in Essex and at the end of 1973 he received what turned out to be a very important phone call from John inviting him to join a new group called the ‘Rubettes’.
Mick now performs with Alan and John.
