The Factotums were a pop/harmony group from Manchester, United Kingdom, active in the 1960s. They were one of the first groups to be signed to The Rolling Stones' manager Andrew Loog Oldham's Immediate Records label, but they later recorded for Piccadilly as well. Band members were Nidge Thomas, Jeff Lees, Ian Thornton and Steve Knowles. Influenced by harmony groups such as The Ivy League and The Beach Boys the group recorded six singles in total. They didn't get to an album, but were quite successful. For instance, they were the support act for The Kinks and played with the likes of Jerry Lee Lewis, Tom Jones, Pink Floyd and Cream. They also toured Sweden with Manfred Mann. They disbanded in 1969. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/The+Factotums">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
