Formed by George Jones, son of legendary Man guitarist Micky Jones at his father's request, and with the support of the late, legendary Deke Leonard, Son Of Man were formed to both keep alive the Man legacy and take it forward to a new era, with Son Of Man releasing their own self-titled debut in 2017, with a band that includes various members of fellow Welsh rockers Sassafras as well as long-term Man drummer Bob Richards.
