DOCTOR VICTOR are rock band existing since 2012, often presented as rock’n’roll power trio, that is proud to continue the legacy of traditional rock from the late 1960s and early 1970s with some elements of blues. The band plays own repertoire in English based on stunning powerful guitar riffs, harmonized vocals, memorable choruses and energizing showmanship. DOCTOR VICTOR live shows are purely without using guitar effects and truerockenrollers must admit that this power trio knows how to keep Rock & Roll fresh and alive!!
DOCTOR VICTOR band was formed in Prague, Czech Republic, by Victor – front man of the band, graduate of the Jaroslav Jezek Conservatory in Prague, and holder of a scholarship at the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston. He always wanted to be in band and started to play publicly very soon as a kid. He decided to study music by signing up for the Conservatory in Prague, where he set up a band firstly named as Dr. Viktor. At one point, there were even 12 people on stage who did covers from Prince, Lenny Kravitz or Joss Stone, but later he became more self-confident, started to compose his own songs and sing in front of the audience. From that point, everything revolved more around rock – legacy of traditional rock and blues.
New single StandUP with powerful catchy melodic chord was released in January 2018 and band participated with this song in Czech national selection for Eurovision song contest as the only rock song among six others in competition that is known mostly for selecting pop and dance music styles. StandUP was chosen from more than 400 submissions from all over the world. The single is based on Victor's personal experience and dedicated to all the people who need to rise up from the bottom. The single appeared in application Musical.ly that is very popular among American teenagers and got into rotation of 50 Italian radio stations.
Along with single release, new tour dates were announced that, apart from solid local Czech venues, include again cities in United Kingdom or countries such as Germany, Netherlands, Croatia, Austria or Slovakia. But 2018 is not done and, with almost finished ideas for 2nd Prescription album, more dates, adventures and announcements are yet to come!

“Doozer McDooze wears his heart on his sleeve, places his tongue in his cheek and opens his emotions to the listener. Doozer’s Essex origins mean comparisons with Billy Bragg are inevitable. Thrumming his guitar with a rhythmic energy that demonstrates little concern for the guitar’s safety and total commitment to the music; Doozer McDooze reveals the fragility at the heart of his world view. There is an impressible energy on Not Going Back To That: direct, open and in your face.” - RnR Magazine

Rockcoverband Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde is een 6-mans formatie uit de IJmond. Met een sterk repertoire en eigentijdse uitvoering van klassieke rocksongs weet de band van elke avond een feest van herkenning te maken.
Het repertoire van Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde laat zich lezen als de CD-kast van de liefhebber van stevige rockmuziek, waaronder Stones, Black Crowes, Poppa Chubby, Thunder, Queen, Joe Bonamassa, etc. Maar ook de gevoeliger nummers gaat de band niet uit de weg en weet mede door de toepassing van een heel keyboard-arsenaal het publiek te verrassen met vertolkingen van bv. Lido Shuffle van Bozz Scaggs en Almost cut my hair van C,S,N Y.
In 2014 nam de band, na een jaar van voorrondes, deel aan de Grand Finale van de grootste bandcompetitie in de Benelux en wist zich een plek te veroveren tussen de beste coverbands van de Benelux. De vakjury : “Explosief, boeiend, entertaining en muzikaal op zeer goed niveau. Dat waren de belangrijkste conclusies bij zowel de vakjury als het publiek over het optreden van Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde. Met haar sterke performance wist de band het publiek goed in beweging te krijgen. Ze weet de nummers naar zich toe te trekken en hierdoor een nieuwe eigentijdse dimensie aan de nummers te geven. Boeiende interpretaties van bekende rocksongs zetten niet alleen de zaal op z’n kop, maar scoren ook sterk bij de vakjury.”
Dr Justice & The Smooth Operators brengen degelijk vermaak aan het publiek van vandaag de dag dat verlangt naar de tijden dat albumcovers nog borsthaar hadden en drummachines koude oorpetsen uitdeelden. De tijd dat van de 'ooh yeah's en de 'baby baby's, de tijd van de robotstemmen, 3000 en de piewpiewpiews. Deze beat is streng doch rechtvaardig.
Dr.T & the DJam is een vijfkoppige formatie die reeds vele jaren heel wat enthousiaste bezoekers zich in het zweet heeft laten dansen met hun funk- en rocktoppers.
Ontstaan uit onder meer de Devils Jam en de Soul Survivors. Deze funkrockers hebben al vele decennia ontelbare kroegen, clubs en trouwzalen in Noord-Holland en omgeving onveilig gemaakt. Ook waren zij in 2015 op de mainstage van Rollende Keukens present, alwaar het publiek uitzinnig uit zijn dak is gegaan. In de rest van Nederland beklimmen zij steeds vaker de podia om volle zalen de avond van hun leven te geven. Gewoon lekker dansen dus!
