About Us

Taking inspiration from the pioneers of Rock 'n' Roll we are an authentic, four piece, Rock 'n' Roll/Rockabilly band based in the North West. Recreating the unique sound of the 1950's we emulate the greats from Presley to Perkins and Cochran to Cash and we are sure to get everyone in the room jumping and jiving!!

Harking back to a time when the size of the turn ups on your jeans and how much grease you could pile in your hair determined your stature, we bring you a mixture of our own original material, authentic covers and modern songs with a rockabilly twist!

With our roots embedded in the raw and unique edginess of the 50’s rockabilly sound, we leave those run of the mill bands in a steaming wreck of molten skinny jeans and singed “Barbour” coats.

We recently won Southport’s Band Royale competition beating 40 other bands to the top spot and our busy calendar has had us playing around the North West and beyond.

Events have included festivals, corporate functions weddings, pubs and two very special events for the original Doug Perkins (Managing Director of Specsavers) at the Specsavers headquarters on Guernsey
