Chris 'Beans' Geddes

Belle and Sebastian’s founder member and keyboard wizard Chris 'Beans' Geddes is a funk-struck dilettante and self-professed vinyl fetishist. He’s a keen exponent of chaos theory; he’s notorious for throwing Go-Kart tantrums; and he moonlights as a rampant Northern Soul and exotica dance-floor voyager.

In anticipation of his Triptych 07 set alongside soul high-empress Nicole Willis at Glasgow's Renfrew Ferry on Sunday April 19th, the man Beans sets forth his aural manifesto thus:

Symphonic Four: 'Who Do You Think You're Fooling?'

Black Velvet: 'Is It Me You Really Love?'

Bobby Parker: 'Watch Your Step'

Jackie Wilson: 'It Only Happens When I Look At You'

Joe Lee: 'Bottom Of The Bag'

Nora Lee: 'You Must Believe Me'

The Sequins: 'Some Day We'll Be Together'

Mitch Mitchell & Gene King: 'Never Walk Out On You'

Steve Parks: 'Still Thinking Of You'

The Supremes: 'Bad Weather'
