The 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 when Warren has released solo work under the name of Echoboy, Modlang and The Cold Light of Day.
