Ramrod is a band that wants to mix the taste of Blues and Soul music with the power of Classic Rock.

The fusion of classic rock and blues, with a taste of soul and a hint of psychedelic rock and prog it’s the secret of Ramrod’s sound! An energic sound that totally explodes on stage! An intriguing atmosphere created by the sound of guitar and hammond playing together enhanced by the power of bass and drums, the strong personality and the mighty voice of the frontwoman. You can find all of this in their songs and in their album "First Fall".
Ramrod perform their music in their country and around Switzerland, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, France and the United Kingdom, spreading energy and collecting satisfactions and the enthusiasm everywhere they go! They communicate with music, their songs and their story reached different radios both in Italy and in foreign countries, even overseas in Canada and USA.
This project brought them on stages of international festivals and in the best live clubs for rock blues music.

A few months ago, 7 musical girls started a special challenge: a pop (rock) cover band called "Rapid" without drummer and without bass player. Despite this, Rapid has managed to create a nice set of various sounds, harmonies and (every now and then accelerating) beats!

RATTLESNAKE TRAIN brings an exciting mix of Rock Soul and Blues covers. The band spoils the audience with classics that no other band plays … and they play the hell out of ‘m!

John Fogerty, Lynnyrd Skynnyrd, Rolling Stones, Muddy Waters, Steve Miller, old ZZ Top, Tony Joe White, Black Crowes, Sam & Dave, and Bill Whithers: all served in juicy homemade Rattlesnake sauce.

The combination of a super-tight rhythm section, funky fat keyboards, divine guitar solos and an exhilarating stage performance is a feast for the ears and the eyes!

RATTLESNAKE TRAIN’s current members are Ricky ‘Rattler’ Doejaaren (lead vocals), Vincent Verbeek (lead guitar, ex Cylinders), Minze Koopman (drums, ex Lois Lane), Pieter Keus (bass, ex The Marks) and Bas Grijmans (keyboards, The Jig).

Sixties-until-now-infused-soul-swamp-funk-revue. That’s a pretty acurate discribtion of what you can expect from this local band, which is formed around guitar wizzard Professor Dr. Theo Holsheimer and vocal blizzard Miss Fruitella.

So here’s the recipe: take about a half teacup of rhythmic tambourine, a pound of fatback, soulful vocal chords, plenty tablespoons of smooth, boiling, rhythmic, funky guitars and just a pinch of a bumpin & grindin’ drum machine. And there you have it. Today’s Special is Raw Dawg! They’ll take you by the hand for a walk down memory lane. James Brown, Lyn Collins, Otis Redding, Sam Cooke, Jimi Hendrix, Aretha Franklin, Sly Stone, Jeff Beck, Funkadelic and more fantastic artists are on their setlist. Prepare yourself for a nostalgic and catchy roller coaster ride!

*Emerging from the suburbs of Tallaght, Dublin. Ray Scully has been performing on stages across Ireland every week since the ripe old age of 12. He defines the term 'hard working musician’. At the age of 17 Ray and his band gained record label interest which resulted in an album worth of material being penned in the studio and a tour across Germany.

Since then Ray has been honing his skills and crafts. Ray appeared on ‘The Voice of Ireland’ in 2013. After a blinding performance of ‘It’s A Man’s World’ by James Brown, Ray worked his way up to the semi final stages. As part of Kian Egan’s (Westlife) team Ray performed a breath taking version of Massive Attacks song ‘Teardrop’ to over a million viewers.
