Paul Vickers and The Leg some info:
The leg was formed in Edinburgh in 2005, by Dan Mutch, Alun Thomas and Pete Harvey. In 2018 they are joined by John Mackie (ex Khaya) and James Metcalfe from the Pineapple Chunks. They also record and perform with Paul Vickers from Dawn of the Replicants and Twonkey fame.Pete has also been playing with Modern Studies and King Creosote.Dan, Alun and James have been performing occasionally as Tardigrades too.Alun used to play drums for Withered Hand, Its complex.
The Leg's Live performances have been described as 'Verfremdungseffekt' by Neil Cooper theatre critic for The Herald and as 'eternally brilliant' by David Pollock in The List they have also been called buckfasted-up psychopaths and possibly dangerous by the voices in there own heads.Paul Vickers has been told "He creates wonderlands of weird" by Fringe godhead Kate Copstick in The Scotsman and The Herald said 'he has verbal ideas flying from him like sparks from a Catherine Wheel with voice flipping from abrasive gargle to sneering panto-dame witch.'
You need to book tickets and fast between them they have done more John Peel sessions back in the day then Wile E. Coyote has sticks of dynamite.
Also they are trying hard to finish a new album which has been called fucking brilliant by a mysterious source.The final word has to go to Julian Cope who said Paul Vickers and The Leg are “Like a 50s scientist on a flying bedstead.'
