Name: Dean Jeffery
Hometown: Swansea

Instruments played: Lead Vocals/Rhythm Guitar/Keyboards

Short Bio: Music is in my blood, it is all I know. I wanted a guitar from since I can remember and I bought one off Wez at age 11. We started writing songs together since then starting our own little two man band as kids (Wez made me sing because he was bigger than me LOL) and here we still are in Celtic Assault!

I have also done work outside the band recently temorarily filling in the guitarist spot for rockers 12 Inch ninja/F8 which took me on tour all over the UK, including Guilfest 2004 where I played on the same bill as Blondie, The Damned, Katie Melua, Simple minds, Ocean Colour Scene and the Levellers.

I am also a DJ for popular online radio station eXtreme Indie Radio
