Biography:

The band all started their musical careers in other bands.Walshy began as the lead guitarist in a band called Greyskull. His co-founder was based in a North Wales town called Buddey and after exhausting the North Wales circuit the band split. Walshy took off to Sheffield to broaden his horizons leaving Leon behind.

Leon decided to regroup and hooked up with old friend Shotgun Roberts. It wasn't long until they formed a new outfit called Revolution. A revolution it was not and the band disbanded after a few "differences in musical direction". Realising options were limited in North Wales Leon decided to move to Manchester. Later to be followed by Shotgun Roberts.

Colin at this time was based down south in Essex. Colin was involved in establishing himself as a songwriter, guitarist and a drummer. Colin played in a number of bands down south before deciding to make the move to Manchester where he was introduced to Leon.

Whilst in Manchester Leon and Colin decided to team up and formed Rider. After playing a number of gigs around Manchester the lead guitarist left and the band split.

In need of new members and a new direction Shotgun Roberts was back on board along with the electronic talents of Mendel. Mendel, already based in Manchester specialised in music production. He concentrated on the production of his own music and enjoyed a respectable amount of success.

The now four piece began to put their ideas together. The line up now consisted of Colin on drums, Leon on bass, Shotgun Roberts on guitar and Mendel on Synths. All that was needed was a Frontman. After a drunken phonecall between Leon and Walshy the slot was filled. Walshy moved to Manchester adding his vocal and guitar talents to the band. And so in the summer of 2003 Little Living Trust was formed.

Work began and a different musical direction was agreed on from what all the members had previously been involved in. Bored of seeing so many bands playing the same type of music, Little Living Trust wanted to stand out. What came about was a blend of dance, funk, rock, indie and electronic taking influences from a wide range of musical genres. After debuting their material around Manchester Feedback has been good, everything is looking up. Come check it out.
