Formed in the haze of the early eighties in Dundee by Ian Murdoch, the band were originally known as Dead Ringer. 1983 saw a change of name and fortunately dropping 'dead' was not fatal as under the guise of Ringer, the band made the first of over 30 years of appearances at Beatle Week in Liverpool.
Founder Ian is the band's only ever present member and they have
had numerous changes in personnel over the years.
