Meet Operator Six -- Keighley's answer to David Hasselhoff!

The rock band could follow the former Baywatch and Knightrider star to chart success in Germany.

The Operators have recently sold tracks on their website to fans in Germany, USA and China,.

Guitarist Alex Boyce said the international interest had been followed by a gig offers from Germany and America.

"I think the Germans quite like us, let's hope we get the same success as David.

"We could even get him to feature on one of our tracks!"

A more realistic concert partner is Paul Weller who continues to support Operator Six.

The Keighley guys recent returned to Paul's studio to record two new tracks with Ocean Colour Scene guitarist Steve Cradock.

Alex said: "Paul invited us. He loves it, he can't keep away from us.

"I think he might want us to do a few gigs in his UK tour too."

Operator Six are getting used to mixing with well-known musicians after several big-name support slots.

They were again guests of Ocean Colour Scene last December for dates including Nottingham, Liverpool and Scotland.

The band plays closer to home, at the New Variety Club, Russell Street, Keighley, on April 4, with Fifteen Stories.

Admission is £5 but everyone will receive a free demo of the band's latest music.
