    Lead singer & guitarist of the group Franz Ferdinand.
  • Quotes
    [on the death of Bo Diddley] It's rotten news about Bo Diddley. When I heard it I put 'Road Runner' on the record player. What a riff. What a guitarist - totally revolutionised the way the instrument was played with that loose sexy rhythm.
