Brothers Leon Ashby (Drums) and Joel Ashby (Guitars) along
with long term friend Kevin Warren (Bass Guitar) have played
in various bands together since their schooldays. They have
been inspired and influenced by such rock acts as The Who,
ACDC, Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix. They have remained a
tight unit providing a unique and exciting rhythm section
developed over years of live and recording experience. They
have incorporated the vocal talents of Scott (Bono) Wilson
and have created an awesome sounding tribute to U2. The band
have played throughout the UK playing festivals, clubs, pubs
and private functions. U2-s have always impressed wherever
they perform.
Leon
says..."Kev and I had gone right through school together and
had known each other from very young. Being influenced by
similar rock acts we started getting bands together with
younger brother Joel and have over the years been quite
successful in our various musical projects."
Joel says..."Leon, Kev and I have played together since
childhood in original and cover bands so musically we are on
the same wave length. I had to change my style of playing to
emulate the edge but its a role I'm really enjoying."
Kev
says..." This is the most exciting project to date we are
doing really well. I think its important to enjoy yourself
on stage as it does show from the reaction from the people
that come to see us."
Scott says..." As a kid I was in a few bands whilst living
in my native Scotland. People would often say I had a vocal
style not to dissimilar to Bono of U2 and being a big fan
its a great honour emulating the man himself in the U2's." |
