Sneaky

Sneaky is a Classically trained musician who realized the need to search for his own musical identity at a very young age. After many years of formal training on cello and doublebass and the completion of a music degree in his hometown of Manchester, Sneaky became involved with forward thinking club nights Headfunk and Eardrum alongside a young drummer James Ford (Simian Mobile Disco), and resident DJs Mr Scruff, Andy Votel and Mark Rae. By 1997 Sneaky was heavily involved with Mark Rae´s Manchester based label Grand Central as a live session musician touring extensively around Europe and Australia with the Rae & Christian band. A session with fellow Manc, Mr Scruff in 99 produced the cheeky dancefloor classic “Get a move on” and the following year Sneaky formed FINGATHING with fellow R&C band member Peter Parker after jamming together in the downtime of the R&C rehearsals. 7 years of worldwide touring, 3 albums, several singles and eps released through Gr and Central and Ninja Tune records, Sneaky is now itching to make his solo mark….. His solo debut album ‘Feel Like A King…. Pluck A String’ is released this year on Big Chill Recordings!
