Our Story
From strangers to best friends, Amy & Gez met through a mutual friend as they both shared the same passion for music. What started as a conversation discussing potential 'jamming' sessions soon developed into spending countless hours together, weekends away (with partners), and even spending Christmases together. An unexpected friendship which is gaining both strength and momentum with each day.
CIC was established (early 2023), performing at local events in and around Wrexham before breaking into the Live music scene. We hit the ground running, starting with the occasional gig, to performing every weekend at private events and pubs/ clubs. Over the years, CIC has covered hundreds of miles between North Wales and the South of England, some of which were achieved on the same day.
Constantly evolving, we continuously work on improving our repertoire of songs following each performance to ensure a 'fresh' setlist for our audience.

Amy:
Lead Vocalist & Percussion
Who introduced you to music? My stepdad was a children's entertainer. He performed in holiday clubs, and I would sometimes go with him and sing on the stage; I was about 4 years old. As I got older, he left the holiday clubs and attended specific bookings for birthday parties, etc, I would go with him to these gigs, too. I started playing classical guitar in secondary school and then decided to start playing acoustic guitar so that I could assist my vocals. Between the ages of 15-17, I started busking in Cheltenham High Street and picked up wedding gigs by doing this.
What are your musical influences? Sam Fisher, Lewis Capaldi, James Bay, Fleetwood Mac, Noah Kahn, S Club 7, Blondie and Aretha Franklin.
What instruments can you play and which is your favourite? I've only ever played the guitar adapting to two opposing styles (classical and modern), so on that note, it would have to be, modern guitar for me.
If you could collaborate with any famous musician, past or present, who would it be and why? If I could perform with any musician, past or present, I would choose Billie Eilish. Her artistry is incredible, and she has a unique ability to blend vulnerability with power in her music. Plus, her stage presence and creativity are truly inspiring. I’d also love the chance to go back in time and perform with Fleetwood Mac—their harmonies, storytelling, and timeless sound have had such a lasting impact on music. Both would be unforgettable experiences in their own way.
Geraint:
Guitar & Backing Vocals
Who introduced you to music? Growing up, my dad had quite a collection of records, tapes and CDs. I remember hearing a mixture of artists such as T-Rex and Adam Ant, as well as many others including a selection of Motown artists. My older brother introduced me to the likes of the Beatles, The Who, Stereophonics, The Killers, Oasis and Bob Dylan, usually via 'hand-me-down' CD's.
What are your musical influences? My biggest influence is Stereophonics with hints of the Beatles, Oasis and Bob Dylan.
What instruments can you play and which is your favourite? I spent many years in orchestras and brass bands, playing the cornet, which was my first instrument. I then took to playing the guitar, followed by bass guitar and drums. My favourite has got to be the guitar.
If you could collaborate with any famous musician, past or present, who would it be and why? Being a massive Stereophonics fan for the last 20+ years, it would have to be Kelly Jones. I love his style of writing, his stage presence and the raw husk of his vocals.
