Praying Mantis

Praying Mantis are a well established band of melodic hard rockers. They were formed by brothers Tino and Chris Troy in the mid-1970's and they became one of the bands associated with the the NWOBHM (New Wave Of British Heavy Metal). Their first album "Time Tells No Lies" received a lot of critical acclaim. Unfortunately there was then some managerial problems and a couple of name changes before the band reformed in 1990 with Dennis Stratton (ex-Iron Maiden) for a NWOBHM festival in Japan. Since then they have released new albums every 2 or 3 years and are gaining new fans around the world all the time.

The Beautiful Losers

The Beautiful Losers are a West London / Surrey based quartet who like Rock, Folk and Country Rock. They have been called Alt-Country / Americana-ish but they are also West Coast Rock with a nod to classic British Rock..... and they still play their old songs... In the Sixties and Seventies it was dignified to be slightly ageing rockers hitting guitars and drums and singing proper songs with great words, melodies and hooks. It was cool to have a great guitar sound and the occasional goosebumping solo, it was perfectly normal to rock out and move people with your music. If any of that strikes a chord with you, then this band must not be missed!

The Cafe Racers

Café Racers are: Dominic: lead guitar and vocals, Tony: bass guitar and Doogy: drums. The partnership of Dominic and Tony goes back over 3 decades, having originally been involved in the 70s and 80s rock & beat scene. More recently they've contributed to the revival of 'old-school' R&B playing their unique interpretation of many standards and classics along with original material. Café Racers are at their best keeping music live, performing energy charged gigs in bars, pubs, clubs, & festivals. The band is renowned as a 'power trio' providing an adaptable repertoire to suit all occasions. Come and experience 'Energy-charged Rhythm and Blues', you won't be disappointed.
