Terry Bickers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Terry Bickers (born 6 September 1965 in Fulham, England) was the lead guitarist for The House Of Love. Despite critical acclaim, Bickers had difficulty adjusting to fame. This was exacerbated when the band signed to major label, Fontana, to record their second album. Following his departure from the band, he went on to form Levitation with drummer David Francolini. For Levitation, he was the main songwriter and lead singer.

Following the split of Levitation in 1993, Bickers formed a new band Cradle releasing one studio album Baba Yaga in 1996. Cradle were shortlived following the departure of vocalist Caroline Tree. After working in production, Bickers eventually surfaced with a new band called Monkey 7 in 2000.

Bicker's guitar work also featured on Heidi Berry recordings. After reconciling with fellow songwriter Guy Chadwick, The House Of Love reformed at the end of 2004 [1]. Their first recordings as a reformed act were released at the start of 2005.
