Formed in 2002. A Brief History . . . Six Foot Children started out in 2002, out of the ashes of an established local band called DOREEN. With Lee on Drums, Zoe on Bass and Tim fronting the band the three piece were Loud, Real and Passionate . Tim’s Strat was fitted with a Seymour Duncan Hot Rails pick up, and the secret weapon, a Russian ‘Big Muff’ pedal completed the Childrens sound. Original band member Lee left in 2005, and Alex, who played drums for ‘Doreen’ way back in the good ol’ 1990’s, then re established the chemistry and the album 'Occident' was recorded in the same year. Unfortunately due to constraints on Al's time for the band (roadie for the young knives), live gigs became few and far between. A chance meeting with a blast from the past reunited Tim and Zoe with Aron - a good friend who they had lost touch with for a number of years, Aron was so impressed with the album he learnt the songs and added some great harmonies too. When Aron left in 2006, an opportunity arose to utilise the songs of Mr Smith, which were being worked on with fellow musicians Troop and Dan from local Band CARVER. So a change in musical direction for 6FC too.
