Bio
Ray Mayhew is perhaps best known in music history as being drummer for pop-cyberpunk band Sigue Sigue Sputnik from 1983 to 1990. When Sputnik disbanded in 1990 he quickly formed Mayhem Deranged – a vehicle for Ray to show his abilities both as a singer & songwriter. Early versions of “50 Megaton Love” and “Kept Woman” featuring John Liesk on guitar were recorded during 1990. .. Later that year guitarist Kevin Prockter comes on board and a large body of material is amassed until mid 1993. Regrettably, the master recording sessions never took place and the demos were shelved until recently. Another albums worth of material was written in 1996 with a new line up and an all new sound. Again, masters were not achieved and all the material shelved. Ray sporadically performs in a variety of different incarnations of Mayhem Deranged over the years since and all of it under the radar until. January 2005 sees Ray pick up his drum sticks once more to play for Martin Degville's “Sputnik 2” at a special gig at the Highbury Garage. .. And so perhaps the time was right to re-evaluate Mayhem Deranged? In March 2008, guitarist Kevin Prockter returns to the group and bassist Robert Godfrey is added to record new track “Here I Go Again” at Berry Street Studios. With Kevin committed to other projects, Ray was joined by Diodes guitarist John Catto and The Modern drummer Bob Malkowski to play what became the bands first public gig in September 2008. It’s been a revolving drummer situation since then and it reads like the resume of Spinal Tap – Igor, Chris Nugent and Will Spurling. In October 2009, “Here I Go Again” is finally released on the 272 records compilation – "Riot On Sunset Volume 18" and then in its own right in December 2010 on iTunes, Amazon, etc. And so the story continues...
