Limehouse Lizzy continue to keep the spirit of Celtic rock icon Philip Lynott and his band Thin Lizzy alive, well and dominating stages worldwide. The band have also added a tribute into their show to ex-Thin Lizzy guitarist (and world renowned solo artist) Gary Moore.
From their Official PRS award, performing for Virgin Atlantic in Barbados, T.V. appearances (BBC 2’s ‘Arena’ amongst others), and to actually being recruited to record and tour by members of the original Thin Lizzy, Limehouse Lizzy have just completed their 25th year with their most explosive show and critically-acclaimed line-up yet.
Despite international tours (UAE, Germany and previously USA, Scandinavia, Caribbean etc.), corporate clients (Mitsubishi, NatWest) and even book appearances (The Rocker, Send In The Clones), they’ve shoehorned a co-headline tour with tribute giants Livewire into 2019, along with their own stand-alone tour, in what will be an exhausting year-long schedule. The boys are back!

Petty Criminals are an authentic and professional tribute to the music of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. Playing material from all periods of their career, from the early albums (such as American Girl, Breakdown, I Need To Know, Listen To Her Heart, Refugee) through the commercially successful period in the late 1980s and early 1990s (such as Freefallin’, Runnin’ Down A Dream, I Won’t Back Down, Learning To Fly, Into The Great Wide Open) and the seminal album Wildflowers (such as Wildflowers, You Don’t Know How It Feels, You Wreck Me, Crawlin’ Back To You and It’s Good To Be King) and also choice tracks from the later albums.
Facebook Quotes –
“Absolutely excellent and made me revisit Tom Petty material which seems to have passed me by previously. Go see them – a very tight band.” – Dave Millner.
“Great choice of songs, really well played and sung. Looking forward to seeing this band again.” – Paul Donatantonio.
“The audience loved this band who played two memorable sets finishing the second with three Tom Petty classics – Running Down A Dream, Free Fallin’ and American Girl.” – Colin Fenn.
‘Why do we love Blur? Why does anyone? I am guessing it has to be the uniquely brilliant, surprisingly sophisticated but deceptively simple pop intuition which powered hit after hit in an era where you had to be credible artists on one hand and compete with Kylie for airplay on the other. No one did it quite like Blur.
How do you lay claim to being the best Blur tribute? I don’t think that is up to the band, only the audience can decide. Audiences that know what a Blur live show was all about will recognise the irreverence, the weirdly arrogant self efacing demeanour, the serious musicianship and the throw away punk energy. If that doesn’t float your your boat then I am guessing you probably don’t even like Blur.’

Faux Fighters Uk started when a bored Ben Rudge, drummer turned frontman, decided to start a one-man recording project taking the role of every band member and recording “best of you” on his own. Utterly impressed with his new found skills, he sent the demo out to his long term buddy Bassist, Liam Slattery whose only reply was “You multi instrumental talented F*&ker”
First to jump on board with this crazy Idea was Guitarist Russ Millard closely followed by Paul Beddow. I mean if your gonna go Foo you gotta have 3 guitars right?!?!
Next came the hard part, finding a drummer that would power this along & also put up with having a drummer as a front man.In steps Kris Perrin or as we like to call him “Meat Fists”. The line up was complete! Or so we thought!! After one show we decided that we’re gonna need some keys! Welcome to the fray Mr Ben Selleck, I mean the foos can’t be without Rami & neither can the Faux’s!
Fast forward 2 years and here we are, 75 foos songs in the bag & ready to make some noise!
