Scorching
a trail across the live music venues of the land is this sizzlin
hot 1950s R&B combo...The Revolutionaires!
|
 |
Established
within the hotbed of the North East music scene, they power
out jumpin hot rhythm & blues in their own indomitable hard
hitting style.
Primarily, they are influenced by 1940s and 1950s R&B.
In particular, Louis Jordan, Little Richard, Chuck Berry
and Roy Brown, but have adopted a harder and more aggressive approach,
synonymous with modern blues artists such as Stevie Ray Vaughan
and Mike Henderson which helps create their own high energy sound. |
| Over
the last five years, The Revolutionaires have established themselves on
the UK Rockin circuit, as well as breaking onto the Blues scene.
Highlights have included supporting Walter Trout at Nottingham Rock City,
performing at the Colne Blues Festival, the Summer Jamboree in Senigallia,
Italy and playing at the prestigious Rhythm Riot Festival. |
| They
have a full itinerary of work in 2008, both home and abroad, which includes
festivals in France, Germany, Spain, Malta and Dubai. |
| The
band has recorded three CDs to date containing a collection of Hot Rockin
R&B tracks. Each CD captures the 'rawness' and sheer energy of the
band, who like to give their performances a 'hard-edged' vibe! |
| If
you 'get yourself down' to a Revs gig, in the words of the Ronnie Molleen
tune. |

We'll be rockin' up a storm tonight! " |
