Info[]
Deceitful Bow's sound was a very unique combination of soulful Pearl Jam-esque vocals over angular but funky guitar riffs. The guitarist Gavin was especially memorable for the way that he would throw himself around the stage in almost Hardcore abandon, teasing colourful, overdriven Jazz chords out of his unusually carved guitar.
Gavin Bush is Kate Bush's nephew.
In 1995 the band changed their name to Seventythree.
