Notting Hillbillies Biography
The Notting Hillbillies was a country project formed by Dire Straits’ singer / guitarist Mark Knopfler with Brendan Croker, Steve Phillips, and Guy Fletcher. It was an attempt to capitalize on the success of The Traveling Wilburys. They made just one album, Missing...Presumed Having a Good Time that was released in 1990, before returning to concentrate on their main bands. The Notting Hillbillies have been reunited several times for charity gigs. In May 1997 the Hillbillies went on an 11 show tour in UK. In 1993, only two shows were performed, both without Guy Fletcher. Mark Knopfler: guitar, vocals Guy Fletcher: keyboards, vocals Steve Phillips: guitar, vocals Brendan Croker: guitar, vocals Ed Bicknell: drums - replaced by Danny Cummings for the four 2002 shows. Marcus Cliff: bass Chris White: Saxophone Paul Franklin: pedal steel (studio album and 1990 tour only)
