About
Sour Milk Sea were a short-lived English heavy blues rock band formed in mid-1969 by Chris Dummett, Jeremy Gallop and Paul Milne, students of St. Edward's School. The three were inspired to change their band name, Tomato City, to the name of George Harrison's song "Sour Milk Sea". With the addition of drummer Rob Tyrrell, the original band featured Dummett on lead guitar, Gallop on rhythm guitar and Milne on bass. The group is notable for its next acquisition of singer Freddie Mercury (then known as Freddie Bulsara) who would later join the rock band Smile, who changed their name to Queen.
