Warren Shaw

Warren Shaw was born in Cannock in 1953 and began playing drums in a local band when he was 13. During the early seventies Warren played around local rock venues in the band Flight before touring Germany with a female artist for several months. After returning to England, Flight returned to the rockscene with Warren becoming noted as a lead vocalist. One of Warrens' vocal hero’s during this time was Free/Bad Company front man Paul Rogers During the mid seventies Warren took a job as manager of a local music shop before going professional again in late 1977 when he was poached by Sight 'n' Sound after Neil and the rest of the band witnessed Warrens' vocal ability at a Flight gig.  During the eighties Warren continued to establish himself as a rock vocalist whilst developing a passion for vocal harmonies inspired by the likes of The Eagles, Journey, Styx & ueen. Warren played on professionally until the band finished prematurely in 1993. Changing direction omewhat Warren began doing some studio work, notably involved in thedevelopment of a stage musical with studio owner Chris Warsop (who was the bands sound engineer until mid-2006, see below). During a social night out with Tim Rowe, Warren was encouraged to get his drums out again after aen year live playing retirement. This coincided with Neil and Paul’s desire to 'ditch the computer' to do something 'real' again and Warren was once again behind the mic and the drums.
