Line Up
Hanzo
Hanzo are a garage/ rock 'n' roll trio from Rugby, Warwickshire. The band take influences from 50/60s style rockabilly/ surf whilst mashing them up with crunchy rock riffs, comparing them to recent bands such as Arctic Monkeys, Queens of the Stone Age and Slaves. Peter Plumbley delivers powerful vocals with infectious hooks and clever lyrics, whilst thrashing out bone shaking riffage from his guitar. Eddie Burnham brings punk and punch with his Fender precession, whilst Dean Haydon thrashes out his hard hitting tribal drums into the mix giving you Hanzo!
"Songs can go from having a tom tom heavy rockabilly beat with surf twang and then spiral in to a more straight up rock jam session" Hellacious Harmonies 2016
Hanzo have released many songs since 2015 receiving great interest from many radio stations including BBC Introducing and a live session on Radio Plus One. The band have played many gigs around the country at established venues such as Coventry's Kasbah, Leicester's Firebug and The Musician, London's Dublin Castle and Hope & Anchor, Leamington's Zephr Lounge and many festivals around the country!
"I don't even know where to start - I seriously loved every track on this CD - it was sweet as a nut to listen to - each song just grabbed me by the scruff of my neck and force fed me dirty rockabilly awesomeness…" Rock Reviews 2016
The Arosa
Namsaké
Good Problems
We are Good Problems, everybody has them. We are a 4 piece indie/grunge band based in Liverpool, mongrel rock at it's finest. With Liam Crosbie on drums, Nat Waters on guitar, George Rose on BAG (bass and guitar) and Jen Baranick on lead vocals, we are upbeat yet heavy and melodic. We're moody but we make you move. What have you? Good Problems.
