Brief history of the Band

Five by Five are based in the Fife/Dundee/Angus areas of Eastern Scotland. Although the band was only formed with its present line up in late in 2007, its members have widespread experience and the band’s genesis goes back over 10 years. Rod (Drums + vocals)), Ian (Bass) and Rob (Guitar + vocals)) played together for many years in Backshift (in its various guises) gigging widely around the region. Eventual Backshift reached the end of the road (with founder-member John going off to form Mr Spider). Graham (Guitar + vocals) joined as part of a major re-direction that gigged very successfully - but sadly very briefly - as Second Nature during 2003/4 before the usual euphemistic musical differences brought the project to a juddering halt. Anne (Vocals) – who had previously fronted a soft-rock band in the North of England - joined in 2004/5 and Five by Five was born. Rab (Keyboards) dusted off his keys after a long period away from the local band scene and joined (albeit briefly) in late 2005. Graham then left and John (Guitar) joined in 2007.
