Linda Simpson, originated from Halifax, where the air consisted of 80% smoke from the factory chimneys. She has loved music since she was very young, but has never learnt to read it.

Linda joined her first band at the age of fifteen - the other members being of similar age. She recalls that they were driven to their gigs by the father of the rhythm guitarist! Later she joined a rock band, and started to play original material.

She met Chris in 1983 during a studio session, and as she says "...the rest is history".
