Britlinks Ant Parker

Band Photo

Once upon a time there was a boy named Ant and he was in a band called Why?. There was a time there when a festival wasn't without a Why? appearance and a Why? T-Shirt was THE essential to be clothed in. Then Ant left the band, no musical differences, no arguments, just a feeling that he had done his time Time passed and after a short break and a cup of coffee and a kitkat Ant got to thinking He got to thinking that maybe he could do some more music, maybe he could try something else. He started to talk to people about recording again, about writing songs. Take it slowly they said, enjoy the experience, play a little see what happens... and this is what Ant did ... he wrote a few songs ... he tinkered ... plonked ... fiddled ... and then he called some friends and asked them out to play and after some hard work and a lot of brow furrowing and lots of coffee and sometimes some very late nights way past his bedtime he had recorded some new songs. Ant found a little record label called Dubious Recordings and asked them if they would listen to his new songs ... they did and they liked them ...

Latest News: 12th Nov 2000

For the second time in just over a year we can report that the name Why? is to disappear from the scene very soon. The guys who formed the latest lineup plan to change their name at the end of the year and are also promising a "complete overhaul of their musical direction". The new band will continue to record on Alliance Music. The band have asked us to pass on their "most sincere thanks for all the love and support we have received this year" and are looking forward to their new venture. The move is sure to please a number of people who have expressed concern about the band continuing as Why? after the departure of Ant Parker. The last chance to see this incarnation of Why? will be on December 15th in Maidstone (click the link for more info). They are also looking for a new bass player -- check out the message boards.
