* Release Sticker: "Relaxed Muscle" - the group everyone's calling "The Sound of Young Doncaster". That's quite ironic as Darren Spooner, the singing member of the group, has been on the local scene for a number of years, most notably in "Heavy Cochran" who were very popular on the club circuit a few years back. When "Heavy Cochran" split up towards the end of the 90's, Darren (by his own admission) went into a downward spiral resulting in the break-up of his marriage & his eventual arrest for a string of petty crimes. It was whilst serving his community service that he met Jason Buckle, a young man on a Restart scheme. They discovered they shared a mutual interest in music & - BANG - "Relaxed Muscle" was born!
"Like the dark, sinister flip-side to TV's "Phoenix Nights" - Northern club culture gone nasty." (DONCASTER GAZETTE);
"I have never seen an audience look more genuinely scared of a frontman." (SHEFFIELD STAR);
"Whatever you do, DO NOT book this band." (VARIETY DIGEST)
