Black Orchids
The Snakes
There are three artists with this name: 1) UK band The Snakes: It all began in 2002 with Messrs Moor and Davies deciding to mess around with a few tunes for a bit of fun. Without intending to take it much further, there emerged a batch of songs, which, with mates Dan Tilbury on drums and Alex Culpin on bass, created a fire that few could resist dancin round. Headlines followed at the Borderline, Jazz Caf
Slow Chase
Produced by Jonathan Burnside (Grinspoon, Faith No More, Eskimo Joe, The Sleepy Jackson, The Grates, The Living End, Dan Sultan, Dallas Crane), Slow Chase released their debut three track record The Blind Spot EP in 2012. They formed in Melbourne, Australia in 2010 after a chance meeting between singer Adam Gresty and drummer Emily Shaw at an Elvis tribute night.
The Third Degree
1) A group of session musicians paired with vocalist Jon Allen to rerecord a track called "Mercy." 2) Out of the ashes of nothing in particular, not really a revival of anything, and not claiming allegiance to any stodgy point of view, The Third Degree is rather quite an original band in a rather rehashed market. They're punk, and aside from a rather healthy affinity towards skateboarding, their style of music is not geared toward some predefined mold, but is rather the logical result of three active participants in the Orange County...
Rhythm Kings
Formed in 1997by formal RollingStone Bill Wyman, The Rythm Kings is a nice swinging band. Guitarists are Peter Frampton and Albert Lee And at the Keyboards formal Procol Harum Gary Brooker.
Bonafide
Bonafide was formed by singer/guitarist (and awesome drummer for Jason & The Scorchers) Pontus Snibb and rock solid bassplayer Michael Nilsson in Malmö, southern Sweden, in 2006. Pontus, who had already made quite a name for himself playing with countless well known artists on the Scandinavian blues and rock scene, wanted to broaden his musical horizon by turning the volume to 11 and play hard rock the way it's supposed to be played - True to it's roots in the electric blues and early R'n'B.
Monster Truck
There's something comforting about a band name that delivers exactly what you are expecting to hear. The band realizes the potential for a sort of kitsch status being inadvertently placed upon them. However those curious to dig deeper will quickly realize their conviction for delivering authentic and original hard rock tunes. The band was formed in 2009 by Jon Harvey (Bass & Lead vocals), Jeremy Widerman (Guitar & Vocals), Brandon Bliss (Organ & Vocals) and Steve Kiely (Drums & Vocals) as somewhat of a side-project for their other more serious bands (The Reason, Saint Alvia).
