Ultrasound 9 began life as an instrumental two piece at roughly the time of the First Crusade, so anywhere between 1095-9AD. Take your pick. Unfortunately, and not just for them, they were ahead of their time and were unable to attract a following reflective of their talents, they did however manage to incur the wrath of the Roman Catholic Church. Persecuted as witches, Ultrasound 9 decided that they would have to go underground and live in a small wooden hut.
If you would please fast forward a little now as I can't really be doing with filling you in on the many intervening years, well, not at the moment anyhow.
Late in 2004, or perhaps it was early in 2005, a travelling story merchant stumbled across Ultrasound 9, holed up as they were in their mediaeval tool shed. He had travelled since the winter of 1979 and had passed through such places as Catterick, Lisburn, a place in Cyprus, Ballykelly, Camberley, Edinburgh, Colchester, Buckeburg, Bielefeld, Penicuik, Warminster, Toronto, Bulford, Newcastle upon Tyne, Crewe, Chester and Stalybridge. It was to be worth it though for, awakened from their Spanish Inquisition induced slumber, they were to once more become Ultrasound 9 and write some tunes.....
You can listen to these. All Ultrasound 9 CDs are availble for the price of postage only. All downloads are free. We are putting our music out there for free so that you can enjoy it and not be hassled for cash. If you like us please tell your friends about us! It would be awfully nice of you and most appreciated. Thankings.

We love that craic!
Mr Dave and Widey add a little post-industrial Mancunian to the mix whilst Beanie brings to the fray a dash of Bedouin nomad. Craftily splice this with Mr Dave and Widey's punk sensibilities and graft Beanie's vacuous 80s decadence on to the end and you might have some idea of the sound.
If you're still not sure, cop a listen. Cheers, beef and horse.
