“Some of this is a lie: the Famines were founded by Raymond E. Biesinger (ex-Vertical Struts) in August 1967 and performed just once as a four-piece rock band, at Electric Garden in Covent Garden, London, before immediately breaking up in disarray. Biesinger retained the services of percussionist Garrett Heath Kruger (ex-Wolfnote) and the duo began producing eccentric, pastoral, and folk-tinged ditties steeped in Tolkienian mythology, with spiritual homages to Gene Vincent and Eddie Cochran thrown into the mix for good measure.”
