Whippersnapper was an English folk band formed in 1984, consisting of Dave Swarbrick (fiddle, mandolin, vocals), Chris Leslie (fiddle, mandolin, vocals), Kevin Dempsey (guitar, vocals) and Martin Jenkins (mando-cello, flute, vocals). Swarbrick left the group in 1989, and the band continued as a trio until 1993, with the only album recorded that line-up being ''Stories''. During that time, Dempsey and Leslie released an album called ''Always With You'' as a duo. The band split when Jenkins left the group in 1993. However, they did tour briefly again in 1994. Following Swarbrick's recovery from illness, Whippersnapper toured again as a full four piece in both 2008 and 2009. Martin Jenkins (born 17 July 1946, London, England) died on 17 May 2011, in Sofia, Bulgaria, from a heart attack.〔(Thedeadrockstarsclub.com ) - accessed May 2011〕 Not to be confused with the Australian indie rock group The Whipper Snappers who coincidentally played during the same period 1988 to 1993. ==Discography== * ''Promises'' (1985) * ''Tsubo'' (1987) * ''These Foolish Strings'' (1988) * ''Fortune'' (1990) * ''Stories'' (1991) 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「Whippersnapper (band)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
