THE MYSTERY TRAIN RIDERS
Hailing from the heart of North East England and Scotland, The Mystery Train Riders are a high-energy 1950s rockabilly band breathing fresh life into the golden era with an unmistakably youthful, electrifying edge.
Fronted by vocalist and rhythm guitarist Chris Blakey, the powerhouse lineup features the infamous Dan Garland slicing through on lead guitar and Scotland’s own Michael McGill ‘driving’ the heartbeat on double bass. Together, they combine raw vintage sound with authentic mid-century style to deliver an unmissable experience for every crowd.
ALAN POWER & THE AFTERSHOCKS
Formed in Waterford, Ireland in late 2022, Alan Power and the Aftershocks are a four-piece band influenced by the early roots of rock & roll.
The band is led by vocalist Alan Power, backed by Michael McGill on upright bass, Jimmy “Jim Law” Shields on guitar, and Liam Ascott on drums. Their sound draws from 1950s rock & roll, blues, and early country, referencing artists such as Little Richard and The Platters and many more.
Known for their focused, high-energy live performances, the band have performed across Europe and the UK.
