Formed in 2009, the current line-up consists of Kev and Ged both on lead and rhythm guitar and background vocals, Mick on bass guitar and finally Richie who is doing the extraordinary job of doubling up as the band’s lead vocalist and drummer, - doing both jobs admirably! This has to be seen to be believed!
All band members have at least 20 yrs experience of playing live in various local bands and clubs around the North East, some of which bands have included; Kneejerk Reaction, Alexander’s Palace, Chase and Flashpoint.
The band are a primarily a classic rock covers band, covering music ranging from AC/DC, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Thin Lizzy and Queen, through to newer artists such as Billy Idol, Stereophonics, but played with a much harder edge.
