The Story
President Gas is Scott Wylie (vox, guitar, keys), Paul Lee (guitar), John Savage (drums), Tim Hyndman (keys) and Dilan Savage (bass). The band has been together more than twenty years in various forms. Barry White held down the bottom end on bass for most of that time with Reuben Daube coming in for the 'Retroactive' and 'Staurday Night Live' albums. Pat McLaughlin manned the drum stool first and performed on the 'Star' and 'New Dream Conspiracy' albums. Ben White then took over the sticks for 'Sound on Sound' and Greg Milne provided the massive beats for 'Perfect Circle'.
For those younger folks among you the band is named after an old song by 80's band the Psychedelic Furs that the band covers from time to time - a great song with a monster guitar riff!
