   Foley emerged in Gravesend, Kent during the early 2000's when Richard Lock, Mark Thompson and David Collins came together with the idea of self  producing a multi-styled musical album in their very own  bed rooms! The Foley three, who have been friends since high school, created everything from scratch with no outside influences and only using local music talents to add vocals and other instruments to the mix.

 

 Richard J Lock has been playing music since a young age and his passion took over after finding an old guitar in his attic at the age of 10. Over the years he has become known as a very talented and versatile guitarist and has been involved with many bands and projects such as LO and The Wilderness Years to name a few. To his credit he has also become known for his skills as a drummer in such bands as The StarvinUngries and 40 Odd Yards.  Richard has also worked as a studio engineer/producer and has qualifications in Advanced Sound Production.

 

   Mark Thompson began making electronic music in his early teens when he bought a second hand drum machine and quickly became hooked on programming beats. As his bedroom studio grew, so did his repertoire of  production skills. A popular local figure, Mark enjoys collaborating with other local musical talents to create new and interesting sounds.

 

   David Collins, inspired by his friends' home studios, began making music in his mid teens. Over the years his own equipment grew along with his interests in musical instruments. As well as becoming a creative producer David is now a bass guitarist in such bands as Spank and LO.

 

   A`while`after starting work on the L.P. "Landscapes of choice", Foley enlisted the help of a few local artists and friends to bring some extra spice to their record. The first up was saxophone & violin maestro Thomas Jones, a friend of  Richard from a previous band. The second was french horn player Gareth Thire, another former band mate of  Richard. Third came turntablist and artist DJ Smudge, housemate with Mark and good friend of the band.

 

   The first of the vocalists was the talented and experienced singer Emma Finch-Turner.  Emma has a wide musical background and has had a top 10 hit  with the act Dream Catcher as well as many other professional projects.  Emma came highly recomended to Richard by another Producer.

   The second vocalist was an unknown singer by the name of  Mandi Bailey.  Mandi met Richard after She replied to an ad he had put in his local music store and she can currently be seen performing with her local band the 10oclock angles.

   To add another vocal dimension to the Foley sound they took advantage of an aspiring young rapper  called Cylio. Cylio and his fellow MC's had previously recorded with Mark and Richard,  and both were highly entertained by his fresh style.
