Travelling Light

The Spiderhawks made their first release in mid–pandemic with a single titled Holy Joe, which was designed to raise money for homeless people. It was fun to do in a pandemic sort of way, successful, and spurred us on to complete this album.  Travelling Light is due for release on 25th March 2022.

The backbone of the band is songwriter and composer Simon Webb, who is a well-established composer for theatre, TV and Film; Robert Hart, best known for his work with The Distance, Bad Company, and Manfred Mann’s Earth Band; Bernie Marsden, legendary Whitesnake guitarist, who has worked with Simon on many film, theatre, session, and television projects; Jimmy Copley, famed session drummer, best known for his work with Jeff Beck and Tears For Fears. The supporting cast of musicians (including The Kick Horns) and singers are all top sessioneers in their own right.
