... About ...
The Mansfield Rack began in the Spring of 2000.
Chris Worden and Matt Worden (of no familial relation;
the surnames are simply a coincidence) - who had been
playing together for roughly a year - recruited Matt
Kocal (initially saxophone only, soon adding
electric bass) and, subsequently, his friend Neil
Monkhouse (percussion). After taking the time to
assemble some songs, the band played the first of a
series of concerts in November of 2000.
A line-up change in 2001 incorporated Tom Hewer as
an additional guitarist. After a year, Tom left and
was replaced by Julia Perry as bassist, with Matt
Kocal taking on the role of guitarist alongside Matt Worden. The
summer of 2002 saw the departure of Neil Monkhouse,
which the band remedied by constructing its own
percussion instruments (drum kits are expensive).
Currently we have been reduced to 3 members with the exit of
Matt Worden in October (2002), and are busy recording
and writing new material.
