Tony Pepper (Vocals & Guitars)
Tony has been a singer-songwriter and performer for as long as he can remember. He took to the stage at eight years old singing at local clubs and in 1964 he joined the Medway Variety Club after being spotted by the then Chatham Standard journalist Jimmy Hodge.

He was a founder member of the popular 60s Medway band Chapter 2 which was an all family affair and also performed as a cellist with the Kent Youth Orchestra. He has too many influences to mention with The Beatles being the exception. In 1999 he released a solo album called ‘The Writer’ which is still available. Tony also performs with the 'long time running' duos/bands 'The Pepper Set', 'Breakthru' and 'Off The Cuff'.
