It's Blast from the Past time but with an up to date twist!
The Stangs were a Haverfordwest based band of retro rockers, heavily influenced by Rock 'n' Roll and Rhythm 'n' Blues - the sort of music The Rolling Stones and The Beatles were making in their early days. The Stangs played covers by outfits like this as well as their own material and were very popular in the county and beyond. They played Tenby Blues Festival a couple of times.
Originally a quartet, the band ended its career as a trio comprising Graeme Heath (guitar/vocals), Glenn Alcock (drums) and Josh Lomas (bass). Glenn and Josh are still playing together in Muse tribute, Hullabaloo whilst Graeme went off to work on cruise ships.
Well now Graeme is back and hopes to team up with Mathew George, the rhythm guitarist, vocalist and songwriter with Pembroke Dock based indie rock band Coastal Horizon, to form a new raw rock band. They need a rhythm section. If anyone is interested in auditioning, drop an email to us at PWR and we'll pass on the information.
