Julianne has done some backing vocals for Mark Thwaite's and Andy Cousins band. Both Mark and Andy have played in the Mice line-up (see phoenix festival review) Originally called BlueMax they have now decided there were too many bands associated with the word 'blue' and have renamed as Phive.

Julianne was apparently impressed by the band's incendary live performances, and contributed backing vocals to their epic version of the Carpenters classic hit 'Superstar', as well as to two other tracks 'Suicide Ballad' and 'She's so'.

The debut album is soon to be released with the three tracks featuring Julianne which Mark comments as being the best tracks on the album. A release date and review of the album will be made available shortly.

Andy is also still working on his own band Lucy Nation
