Biography

edit bio

Brothers John and Richard Dunsterville performed in the early 1960s in a band called the Force Four, playing vocal harmony led music.
In college they met drummer Stewart Osborn his friend Roger Newell a bassist. They formed Rainbow Ffolly together in 1967. They recorded a demo tape in the Jackson recording studio and the brothers running it, Malcolm and John, took the tape to EMI to secure a record contract. EMI bought the rights to the tape as-is and released it as “Sallies Fforth”. The band was pleased with the confidence shown by EMI on the material but were unhappy that they didn’t get a chance to overdub some of the instruments, especially the guitars were not up to par according to the brothers Dunsterville. The band toured extensively, including a month in Hamburg’s Star Club of Beatles' fame and a stint at London’s fashionable Playboy club. Despite positive press the album did not sell well and with insufficient returns from the tours to live on the band decided to call it quits and look for other work at the end of 1968. In the years after John and Roger played with Rick Wakeman’s English Rock Ensemble in the 70s, and Stewart worked on the models for the Thunderbirds TV series. In 2016 the band reformed without Richard to release “Ffollow Up!”, consisting of an eclectic set of tracks written over the past decades and encompassing just about any musical and comedy style imaginable.
