Formed in a piggery in deepest darkest West Yorkshire , Old Man Pie play americana , black country and their own brand of ‘pie music’. Old Man Pie are Kyle Christie (vocals, accordion and guitar), Ian Evans (guitar), Stuart MacPherson (lead guitar and animations), James Munroe (bass and vocals) and Greg Smith (percussion and drums).
Old Man Pie write and play their own music which has found world wide audiences through the internet and the accompanying animations they have created. Subjects such as dry stone walling, the debt time bomb, tapeworms and the complexities of human relationships are carefully crafted into their songs. But they also play a wide variety of cover versions in their own unique way, including Black Eyed Peas, Johnny Cash and The Pogues. These songs are often significantly reworked to give them that unique ‘pie sound’. No coincidence that the band are located near the UK ’s best known pie village and the home of the world's largest pie.
The name Old Man Pie is derived from a famous joke about a truck driver who was being harassed by Hell’s Angels. Unafraid to challenge their bullying and ageism he backs his truck into their motorbikes before heading off into the sunset where they couldn’t follow. Old Man Pie have recreated this character in a number of their songs and internet animations which can be viewed on their website at www.oldmanpie.net.
