String Driven Thing were a folk-rock band formed in 1967 in Scotland. Led by husband and wife Chris Adams and Pauline Adams, they featured the electric violin of Graham Smith. In April 2009 String Driven Thing re-founded as String Driven.
Back in the 70's, when there was no MTV, real music fans went 'underground' digging for gold, and found bands like String Driven Thing. Fronted by Glaswegians Chris & Pauline Adams, they were part of the famed Charisma stable, alongside Genesis, Lindisfarne & Van Der Graaf Generator and by the time they split in ‘74, they'd released three cult albums, the last of which, 'The Machine That Cried' was hailed at the time as a “staggering achievement” by the Guardian’s rock critic, Martin Walker.
