Trunk were based in Rye around the early 70's. The band consisted of
- Kevin Williams (vocals)
- Graham Willams (vocals)
- Steve Blattman (lead guitar)
- Gerv Seymour (lead guitar)
- Kev Miller ( bass, not in the picture)
- Simon Hill (drums).
The band were billed as a Rock Harmony group and played all sorts from the Who to the Eagles and trod the boards around the Kent and East Sussex border.
The band split in 1977 after Kevin Williams joined Die Laughing and went off to tour Germany, he now fronts his own soul band Rye & The Quarter Boys once based in London but now only appearing at special venues. Gerv Seymour left the area but was involved in the music in Norfolk running a music pub. Simon Hill played with various folk bands after the demise of Trunk, not known what he is doing today
Kev Miller gave up playing after the split. Graham Williams lives in New Zealand and although had a short career with Last Orders, a rock band with Phil Allchin and Steve Blattman in the late 70's, is no longer involved in performing. Steve Blattman spent the last 30 years playing in local bands including Galaxy Tramp, Last Orders, Red House, Hippo Band and most recently the Rhythm Doctors who are currently doing the pub circuit in Kent & Sussex.
