Founded in the mid-eighties, Fenton Weills is Germany's most long-lived garage band, which still likes to play the one or other festival today.
In their heyday they toured with The Jesus and Mary Chain, The Direct Hits, Stingrays and and were the set support for the European tours of Television Personalities.
