Therapy were a UK group formed in 1970, when Fiona Simpson (b. 8 May 1952, Farnborough, Hampshire, England; guitar, vocals), joined the existing duo of Dave Shannon (b. 7 February 1947, Belfast, Northern Ireland; keyboards, guitar, vocals), and Sam Bracken (guitar, vocals). While the former duo had specialized in blues and ragtime, the addition of Simpson changed their repertoire to include songs by such writers as James Taylor, and Joni Mitchell. When Bracken left in 1971, Simpson and Shannon continued as a duo until 1983, touring Europe, playing venues as disparate as a folk club one night, and the Royal Albert Hall the next.
