Who could have envisaged four guys from very different backgrounds coming together to produce such a unique sound?
Crippled Giant was formed in the mid 1990s as a vehicle for the songwriting talent of Chris Pitts (vocal/acoustic guitar/harmonica).
The rest of the band comprise Chris Gibson (violin), Neville (Big Nev) Dean (fretless bass & lead guitar), Bruce Root (drums).

Chris Pitts writes in the tradition of English landscape poets. He uses the medium of ‘Symphonic folk’ to give a sense of Pathos to his work.
Although a lot of his work is melancholy it is by no means all like that, the thumping fervour of Arnold Plum tells us that he can be tongue in cheek even when the lyric is serious.
