Brigitte Rodrigues
Lead vocals, backing vocals, percussion, piano, piano accordion and drum programming.
Born: 17 February
The middle child of three, Brigitte derives her Scottish blood from her mother's side who, although having spent most of their time in Inverness, had originally hailed from as far north as Durness. She derives her Portuguese blood from her father, who comes from Santa Cruz in Madeira. She was born in Salisbury, Rhodesia, as a deaf child, and had to undergo corrective surgery in 1981. Soon after the surgery Brigitte showed her potential for music and began playing tunes by ear on an inherited keyboard. Throughout her teens she participated in a number of local theatre shows over a period of ten years; singing, dancing, acting, playing piano and doing the musical direction in one of them. She has been the lead singer in a few live bands, and, in one instance, the musical co-ordinator and lead singer of a seven-piece band. She has done session singing on many advertising jingles, and was a music teacher for seven years.

Born: 17 September
Born in Dundee, Scotland, David was exposed to traditional Scottish folk music from the age of six. His parents took him to his first live concert held in Dundee where popular folk Duo "The Corries" blew David away. In 1973 the Scobie family moved to Salisbury, Rhodesia. From the age of ten, under the instruction of a close musical family friend, David began learning rudimentary chords on a guitar his parents had bought him. In 1980 David, aged fifteen had a hit-single in Southern Africa called "Gypsey Girl". The single was released in October 1980 and it went to No.1 in Rhodesia that November, staying there for the next four months. It was then released in South Africa in April 1981 and it bounced up and down the Springbok charts for nineteen weeks.
The single went Gold in both countries and David became an over-night celebrity. His next single "Taking The Easy Way Home" was recorded in April 1981 and by that June it had reached the Top Ten in both territories again. He went on to release five albums.
From 1983 to 2004 he endured a fruitful career in advertising jingles, producing and engineering. Over the years David repeatedly earned Advertising Awards for his efforts. In 1998, he staged two musicals and two comedy theatre productions to full houses around the country.
