THE EX MEN
THE EX MEN
Rock n Roll’s long heritage is drenched with countless classic artists.
As the years roll by, members come and go.
But the songs always remain.
So many artists, so many songs!
The Ex-Men feature four British musicians with their own remarkable heritage – playing alongside legends and icons of music – so there’s no shortage of classic and iconic songs for them to play!
Vocalist/bassist/guitarist Peter Barton
spent over two decades as the voice of Animals & Friends, alongside The Animals’ co-founder, John Steel and the man who replaced Alan Price on keyboards – Micky Gallagher, later (and still) one of Ian Dury’s Blockheads. Along the way, Peter has toured alongside Stax and Blues Brothers legend, Steve Cropper; the late great Mick Green (The Pirates, Paul McCartney, Bryan Ferry, Van Morrison) and Spencer Davis.
