about
Andy, Kyt and Neil Davey formed the band Bucca, the first band to devote itself entirely to the promotion of Cornwall's traditional dance music, in the late 1970's. Bucca enjoyed a fair degree of success, spending each summer on the road around the other Celtic countries, and making frequent TV and radio appearances. In 1980 they signed to Plant Life Records for the release of their album 'An Tol yn Pedn an Telynor' - 'The Hole in the Harper's Head' - which was distributed in thirteen countries worldwide. Although comparatively short-lived, Bucca proved to be a source of inspiration for many musicians who later took up playing Cornish dance music. Kyt Le Nen Davey now records with his family band Anao Atao, Neil tours and records with Dalla and Andy lives and works in Sweden.
