Billy Mahonie are an instrumental post-rock band.
History Formed in 1997, the original line-up consisted of Gavin Baker
(guitar), Howard Monk (drums), Hywell Dinsdale (bass and guitar) and Kevin
Penney (bass). Their first release was on the Fierce Panda record label, a
split-single with Rothko, followed by a release on the Fierce Panda
offshoot Livid Meercat. By 1999 they had signed with Too Pure, who released
their debut album 'The Big Dig'.
Despite good reviews for The Big Dig, they were dropped by Too Pure, only
for Southern Records to pick them up, and release the album 'What Becomes
Before' in 2001. In 2003, a third album 'Dust' was released on Tritone
Records, with a new line-up of Gavin, Howard, Duncan Brown (bass) and
Anthony Barratt (guitar). A collection of singles and other rarities,
'Found', was released in 2005 on Oof Records.
