about

The A Band are a British musical collective formed in Nottingham in the late 1980s. In 2005, The Wire compared the band's importance to that of AMM and SME, and noted their lack of musical training. The line-up of the group has never been fixed. New members are always invited to join the band. This is their Christmas Album for 2015, they may not perform live again until 2020. And remember have a Horrible Wonderful Christmas! Cake!!!
