| |  | A common love of Torquay United FC and 60s music brought together three of the members of The Morrisons. Take a listen to Arrow In Your Heart and see if it hits the target for you.... |
 | 
|  | Who's who in the band? Phil Andrews – Vocals and guitar, Phil is 43 and likes Ryan Adams, country rock, Chinese food and Torquay United FC.
Ian Churchward (43) on guitar and vocals. He loves guitars, 60s music and is a Torquay United FC season ticket holder.
Dave Clifford plays bass, he's 42 and loves MG sports cars, most music and - guess what - Torquay United FC.
And finally the youngster of the group, 23 year old Guy Bolt, our drummer who also plays harmonica and keyboards and provides backing vocals. He likes rebuilding MG sports cars, playing as much music as possible and.... girls!
Phil, Ian and Dave have been friends for over 20 years. A love of punk music originally brought us all together.
We first played as The Morrisons between 1986 and 1988 when John Peel played our debut flexi-single "Listen To Your Heart" on his Radio 1 show.
The new line-up - completed by Ian's stepson, Guy - has been together since January 2004.
And how about the name - The Morrisons? That came from Ian's love of 60s music and, of course, Jim Morrison. A few beers down the pub almost had us called The Jim Morrisons!
What's the song you've chosen to demo for us? Arrow In Your Heart. It was written back in 1988 but never played live.
It resurfaced when we were listening to some old demos last year and liked the tune.
The original version never had the ace harmonica on it though.
Listen to Arrow In Your Heart - think of summer - and enjoy!
Which three words best describe your sound? Jangly - Chiming - Rickenbacker
What do you think of the current music scene? The local scene is a little too heavy on the covers and tribute bands.
The national music scene is improving for guitar bands. Indie has hit the mainstream for a lot of bands.
Complete the sentence "If we become famous..." ...we will believe in miracles!
