Sticky Breed
|
Sticky Breed is a rock band which was created in 1975 in Larnaca, Cyprus by a group of teenage students.
Sticky Breed has dominated the rock scene in Cyprus between 1975 to 1977. The band members were Stelios Stylianou (Stylex)as the lead singer, Andros Pastas lead guitarist, Neoclis Nicolaou bass, Mimis Fantousis, rhythm guitar, and Andreas Pyrgos drums. The band was playing every Saturday evening at the Four Lanterns hotel in Larnaca. This venue was the popular spot for Larnacas teenage students and young adults. During this period the group performed in a number of venues in other towns and also featured in numerous rock band competitions in Nicosia and Limassol. Sticky Breed stopped performing in July 1977 when three of their members had to join the Army in order to do their compulsory conscript service.
