Felix Slander
If ever a name was slurred across the rich folk punk genres it was that of Felix Slander.
A notorious lover, well known to any London brothel, such that it has been said he cheated on death with Iggy Pop. Some say he is completely illiterate, understanding books not on their prose but more, their vibe. Others say he actually invented the stylophone.

Slander met Jones and James when he was truly down and out, on a week binge of heaving pritsitck fumes. He crawled into the Blind Begger, howling the melody “a whiter shade of pale” and as fate would have it, brought Jones and James a drink…
