Oliver Knight is a singer/songwriter/sound engineer from the UK. He is son to folk singer/songwriter Lal Waterson and George Knight. He is brother and stage partner to folk musician Marry Waterson. == Early life == Oliver Knight was born in Kingston upon Hull in 1969. Son to George & Elaine Knight (Lal Waterson) with one sister Maria Knight (Marry Waterson), he and his family lived in Park Avenue, Hull until 1976 and then moved to St. Ives Farm, Robin Hood's Bay. He attended Bricknall Ave in Hull, then Fylingthorpe C of E, Eskdale and then Whitby. Oliver then went to Scarborough Technical College to study Art & Design for 1 year. At the age of 14, Oliver started to play electric guitar, “Although encouraged by my parents, it wasn’t until I found Uncle Martin’s Fender Telecaster under a bed, hi-jacked his amp and started to play along to Pink Floyd that I felt inspired to play the guitar”, Oliver says, “At college I made friends with some guys from Whitby who were playing, and before long we had a band called ''Sons Of Gods Mate''. We even made a video of one of our songs to send to The Tube but I don’t think we ever sent it. There was quite a music scene in Whitby at this time, a gig most weekends and good fun.” He did various labouring jobs until settling down in 1989 as a self-employed subcontracting gardener for a local firm based at Ravenscar, North Yorkshire. In 1986 Oliver moved from St. Ives Farm into the Village of Robin Hood's Bay. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Oliver Knight」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
