"Formed in 1974, from a chance meeting between Dave and Kath. Kath was singing Paul Simon’s “The Boxer” to her own guitar accompaniment and, realising that she had a remarkable voice, Dave asked her to join himself and Jim, an old rock climbing buddy and musician of note, in forming a new group. They progressed quickly to the folk clubs in and around the Oldham, Ashton-u-Lyne and Stalybridge areas, and in 1976 entered and were runners up in a local Tameside talent contest. In June 1979 they decided to make their own record with the help of their good friend and emerging singer/songwriter, Clive Gregson, and in October 1979 laid down the tracks for 'Rosemary Lane’ which was issued in November that year and topped the Folk Album chart in the HMV store in Manchester for some weeks after its release.
Further momentous gigs performances culminated in a memorable appearance at Styal Mill,Wilmslow with the BBC’s Brian Redhead and the Darius Ensemble from the Royal Northern College of Music.
Tickawinda’s album 'Rosemary Lane’ became something of a collector’s item, and it was decided to re-release the record as a CD in 2001.
The success of the new release prompted many requests for the band to reform and they managed to get together about once a month to practice, with a view to performing a few selected venues around their old haunts. In no time at all they all agreed that they had slipped seamlessly into their old routine, and were looking forward to their first gig in twenty five years.
Sadly they were forced to cancel this first appearance, due to be held at The Cross Keys, Uppermill, owing to Kath’s sudden illness which, despite an extraordinarily brave fight, she succumbed to in July 2005."
