| A little about the Band Members | |
|
Jon - Lead Vocals and Guitar. Jon Gold who hails from Galway entertains the Charlie´s Bar crowds with a mix of Irish & Country music every night. Jon has been singing and entertaining on Lanzarote for the past 12 years. He worked most of this time as a solo performer. Murphy and Jon have been friends for years (both a little eccentric, with a warped sense of humour and bordering on sane!), and after a few quiet pints of Guinness one night it was suggested that Jon would jointly front the band Skin & Hide with Massimo, playing every night at Charlie´s Bar. |
Massimo - Lead Vocals, Rhythm Guitar and Saxophone. Massimo Santalucia, all the way from Rome (but he lived in Dublin for 5 years prior to moving to Lanzarote in 2006) heads up the band at Charlie´s Bar. No stranger to Irish or Italian television, Massimo has played in many bands in both countries over the years. He is also a very accomplished songwriter, which is his real interest when he is off stage. He is a seriously energetic, talented performer with his own very unique style. |

Shaky - Drums. On drums is the great Shaky from Dublin. He has also been living in Lanzarote for years. Despite his time here, unknown to many, his real name is David Shakespeare, the nephew of a William Shakespeare! He is the man who keeps everyone together, and a fantastic character. |
| Sergi - Lead Bass Guitar. Very simply described as an "amazing friendly lunatic" all the way from Barcelona. |

Widgeon - Electric Guitar & Vocals. Widgeon, who hails from the far away Texas, is an absolute genius on lead guitar who pulls off some astonishing solos night after night. It is fantastic to hear him play some Irish trad tunes on electric guitar! He is also a very talented rock singer with an unbelievably huge repertoir. |
