Hybirds

The Hybirds were an English indie band, formed in the mid-1990s in Nottinghamshire. Comprising Richard Warren, Darren Sheldon and Louis Divito, they evolved from the local bands The Front and Valve before signing to Heavenly Records, where they released singles such as "See Me Through". They split in the late 1990s, since then Warren has released solo work under the name of Echoboy, Modlang and The Cold Light of Day.

The band did a session for Peel's programme in 1997 and at the end of the year were voted at number 29 with 'Seventeen' in the 1997 Festive Fifty. After the group split, Peel kept interest in Richard Warren's project of Echoboy, who later did three sessions for his programmes.
