So you missed Cream and Hendrix! Never mind, see the Garcia play a load of top covers and new material. They are a bunch of virtuosos on guitar, bass and drums that will rock your socks, get you jumping and take you back to the golden years of rock. Miss them and weep

Very professional and hard working band. They setup at the speed of light and perform like music animals. They also got the best sound I've ever heard in this place. Very recommended.

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

The crazy energy and passion we share with the audience when we perform. The spontaneity and ability to improvise, dance, laugh and interact with the audience. The showmanship.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

Most of the scene venues in London as well as cruise ships and private events. Venues like the Blues Kitchen, Ain’t Nothin But The Blues Bar, Spiritual Bar, The Jago, The Sindercombe, The Finsbury, The Half Moon… Cruise ships like Virgin Resilient Lady or Marella Voyager.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

All sorts… The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Robert Johnson, James Brown, Paco de Lucía, Queen, David Bowie, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, The Strokes, The Killers, Neil Diamond, Bon Dylan, Johnny Cash, Guns n Roses, Nirvana, The Band, Janis Joplin, Joe Cocker, Pink Floyd, and more

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

Virgin Resilient Lady was indeed a top gig, doing shows in the big theatre as well as the venues on board. This was when the ship was arriving to Australia being that a big moment for the company though it was the first Virgin ship reaching Aus. We performed for Richard Branson and other important members of the company.

Will the singer be the same as who I see in the videos?

As a strong band we are, our uniqueness and exclusive performance comes from the formula of our members, so we make sure you get what you see. There is always a backup in a case any member falls ill or is unavailable, but it has never happened. We are formed by top gear players and that is what we aim to provide.

Do you have different line-up options?

We have our main power trio line-up, which can be stripped back to acoustic with our drummer on cajón, but also different arrangements like adding Keys and Sax.

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

We have a great flexibility with bookings, always trying our best to accommodate all clients with preference by booking order. If we can adapt to a change of circumstances we will do it, though the show must go on!

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Of course, we actually love to do it though it fits perfectly with our show and creates a coherency that people really appreciate. We provide this for free! And if you want a DJ at the end of our set until closing, we can provide it for a small additional cost.

How much time do you need to set up?

We normally take 1h to set up and sound check. As soon as we’re done, we can provide the free playlist through our PA to warm everyone up and prepare the atmosphere for the show.

Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?

We found out that people really feel the spontaneity and excitement when we do a new set list instead of repeating a show, so we always build up a set for each event though we have a big list of songs and we like to perform with fresh ears and minds to give the 200%.

Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?

Everything is included in the quote, there are no extra charges to worry about! We usually require a 4x4m space to perform.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

There is a high chance we already know the song you are going to ask for considering that we have a lot of experience doing requests and as long as one of us knows it, the rest can follow though everyone sings in the band. We are happy to learn a song for you if you let us know in advance, for no extra costs. And if you want a specific setlist we can talk!
