The Combustibles’ family is thrilled to celebrate Everett Perry’s 80th Birthday! From the beginning of the band in Bombay in 1967 to his current residence in England, Everett has been a great friend, a true leader, and the composer and songwriter who helped distinguish The Combustibles from the many other bands in Bombay in the late 60s and early 70s. Original songs such as “Watch Her”, “Some Peace of Mind”, “Hey Doc”, “There’s A Love” and “Cold December” were always featured in the band’s set list and made the band’s music truly unique. From the most recognizable front-man in the Bombay rock scene, to his devotion to the church and his family later in life, Everett has truly been on his own special journey which The Combustibles are proud to have been an integral part of.
Celebrating with Valerie and the immediate family.

With the late Michael Fishberg, Founder/CEO of Harkit Records (London) – whose discovery and vinyl re-issue of Watch Her/Some Peace of Mind in 2013 put The Combustibles back on the music map after four decades.
