Artist Info: Tick Tick

Tick Tick were a post-punk band formed in Middlesbrough UK in 1979. The original line-up consisted of Gary Widdowfield, Geoff Spence and Richard Sanderson. This group had the peculiar distinction of being mentioned in "Smash Hits" magazine as being the first band in Teesside to use a drum machine. Said drum machine was later borrowed for the only release by The Gynaecologists.

It was this group that recorded their only record, a 12" EP entitled "The Immortalisation of Tick Tick" in 1980. [read more...]
