Let’s Go and Get in Some Trub

Guitarist and songwriter Edward Clayton-Jones has had a long musical career beginning in the outer suburbs of Melbourne in the late 1970s. Here, he discusses aspects of his early life, his relocation from outer suburban Rowville to inner-city St Kilda in the late 1970s in a house with some parallels to the Dogs in Space domestic space and his early involvement in bands such as The Fabulous Marquises and Plays with Marionettes. Hugo Race, singer, guitarist and songwriter in Plays with Marionettes (and later The Wreckery), played the character of Pierre, based on Peter ‘Pierre’ Sutcliffe, the singer for The Fabulous Marquises. Clayton-Jones played the character of Davis, based on Ears guitarist Mick Lewis, in Dogs in Space.
