hiya

one band thats been making all the right noises in rotherham is a band called The Rawcus. They got through to the final shootout in battle of the bands at the snafu bar and have been re-booked time and time again around rotherham.

Type of music is very modern rock covers including, Arctic Monkeys, Kaiser Chiefs etc.. as well as classics like Queen, they also do their own music as well.

if you would be interested in talking to them further, then please let me know as i can get you contact details of the bass guitarist.

Paul

One of the best up and coming bands in Sheff is Saving:Mitsuko - got to my space and you'll find them there and can listen to them as well.

They've done The Grapes before, and have got a pretty good following now

Van are the resident band at "Under The Boardwalk", they play headline, opening act, anything, only suggestion is if you put them on as opening act then make sure the headliners are top notch because these lads are a hard act to follow. At their last gig in York they were moved up to headliners after the soundcheck as none of the other bands wanted to follow them. A nice bunch of lads as well.
