Band history
The Outsiders changed their name to "The Sound" after the departure of "Bob" Lawrence (Bass) and Adrian Janes (Drums), the new "sound" commanded a new name and after much deliberation in a pub in Kingston-upon-Thames they became The Sound in 1979. The Sound consisted of: Adrian Borland (vocals, guitar), Benita "Bi" Marshall (keyboards, saxophone, clarinet), Graham Bailey (bass guitar), and Mike Dudley
