The Company of Snakes are
half of what was the 'classic' Whitesnake lineup (Bernie Marsden, Micky
Moody and Neil Murray) supported by Don Airey on keyboards, Robert Hart
on vocals (ex-Bad Company, hence the 'Company') with a couple of drummers,
depending on who happens to be free at the time.
As
I write this it appears that Robert Hart has bowed out of the band to
concentrate on writing his own material. More details from the Snakes
Pages . The new vocalist is Stefan Berggren - also a member of Snakes
in Paradise. Is there some connection?
