Small Faces

They got their name because they were all under five feet, six inches tall. The "face" part came from the Who song, "I'm the Face." This showed their mod hipness.

Steve Marriott was a former child actor. He played both Oliver and the Artful Dodger in the stage version of Oliver! He died in a fire in his home in 1991.

Steve Marriott and Ronnie Lane first met in July 1964 at a gig of Marriott's band The Moments, but did not become friends until they met again in 1965 in a London music shop called J60, where they also met Jimmy Winston. Kenney Jones played in The Outcasts with Lane, and the group found Ian McLagan through a music magazine, after Winston had been thrown out.
