Moose on the Loose are a group of expatriate Canadian musicians currently living in a log cabin north of Luton. Their time is split between fruitless searches for beavers, chopping down trees [which has caused some friction with the locals] and rehearsing their own brand of Blues, Rock and juke-box classics. The band comprises: Ex-Mountie and Celine Dion fan club secretary, Mickey 'Rhythm' Moose on vocals and guitar; Retired Montreal lumberjack Shaun Moose on bass, who still travels everywhere by canoe; Former train driver for the Canadian Pacific Railroad, Antonymoose, from Vancouver on percussion; Barry 'Moose on the Lead', who owns a thriving maple syrup factory just outside Quebec, on another guitar; Travel arrangements and plugging things in are handled by Winnipeg born Road Moose, Brian, famed for setting up an entire rock festival single-handed on top of the Rocky Mountains.
Mooseography
Despite their colonial heritage, the Mooses are, in fact, English. Their families emigrated to Canada in 1959 and lived as a workers collective in the Rocky Mountains, with the intention of producing bearskin hats for the Coldstream Guards. Unfortunately, the bears had other ideas and promptly ate all the parents. The baby Mooses were raised by beavers until they were old enough to be introduced into Canadian society, where they quickly gained proficiency on a number of musical instruments. This explains their English accents why the band are currently over here researching their roots.
