The Rockits are one the finest 50s and
60s tribute bands in the UK, performing an infectious set list of classic
rock'n'roll, from artists such as The Beatles, The Stones, The Who, Kinks, Small
Faces, Elvis, Spencer Davis and many more.
Following her chance meeting with The
Rockits in 2011, Julia Baird quickly recommended them for a weekly residency at
Liverpool's Cavern Club, which is ongoing through 2012. They have proved highly
successful in their regular Friday night slot and are quickly becoming one of
the most requested live acts on the circuit.
The Rockits are Chris Grindrod
(bass/vocals), Rob Bridge (guitar/vocals), John Doris (guitar/vocals), Justin
Crowe (keyboards/vocals) and Mike Beck (drums/vocals). Their collective history
and experience spans three decades including numerous TV, radio and festival
appearances. More recently, they have played privately for Wayne Rooney and have
been invited to feature at international music events in Dubai, Israel and
Kathmandu. Summer 2012 also sees The Rockits headlining The Cavern 60s Review
Show – a new addition to The Cavern Club calendar on Sunday afternoons through
July and August.
Individually, the band
members have been regulars at Beatle Week since the 1980s, but they made their
first appearance as The Rockits in 2011 and were widely acknowledged as one of
the year’s highlights. They are returning this year in a number of shows
including A Tribute to John Lennon at the Philharmonic
Hall, which sees a reunion with legendary tribute artist Gary Gibson after more
than ten years. They will also be found performing A Hard
Day’s Night on The Album Stage at Mathew Street
Festival.
2012 promises to be an exciting Beatle
Week for The Rockits, who are now well-established on The Beatles circuit and
have become a firm favourite with many visitors to Liverpool. They are a sharp
refreshing blow right between the eyes, delivering passion, energy and fun with
every performance.
Completely addictive… and guaranteed to
raise a smile.
