The Berts' BBC Introducing session

The Berts formed back in late 1989, and went on to support The Cranberries and The Stranglers.

The Berts won the Three Counties Battle of the Bands 1993 and had major record label interest from Chrysalis and EMI, but were never signed due to the band splitting up in 1994.

The Berts reformed late in 2005, with new guitarist Pascal Smith (ex The Samples), and their set list includes new songs and old favourites including 'Grab a Bag (And Party)', 'Mushroom Wedding', and 'Shy'.
