The Agony/Coyote Mad Seeds/Alice in Thunderland

THE AGONY/COYOTE MAD SEEDS/THE AGONY
Musician Pun 23rd August 2024

About a year ago the Agony and CMS gave an outstanding concert at the The Musician Pub so it was a real treat to welcome them back, along with another band, Alice in Thunderland... so this looked like a "not to be missed" show... and so it proved.
First up was the new, to me, band.. .ALICE IN THUNDERLAND... and they delivered a terrific set of hard rock'n'roll.... Kev and Stu on bass and drums respectively were powerful and produced a solid pounding beat while guitarist Sam played some superb dazzling guitar. Up front Kala has a fabulous and powerful voice singing brilliantly and moving constantly... an ideal rock'n'roll singer.
The band overall was tight and musically excellent... the material, all i believe orIginal, and high quality. One potentially tricky moment was turned to advantage when Sam forgot how the last song went... the bands humour shone through and after some seconds he led the band into a terrific performance of the song.
Fabulous performance by the band... would love to see them back to play their full hour set... that would be a treat.









Next up, the wonderful COYOYE MAD SEEDS. The band had been a highlight of 2023 and again they delivered a scorching set of rock'n'roll.
They are a no-nonsense driving rock'n'roll band, who are musically top class and play with commitment and humour, with lively banter among the band members and audience keeping the crowd fully engaged. They are a great band and have just something indefinable extra to lift them further.
The music is fast and loud and Joe leads things with his vocals/guitar with assurance and great style, though all four musicians are terrific and blend together perfectly into a powerful, high quality rock'n'roll band... another superb set by the band, thoroughly loved it.









Headling were the Czech hard rock band, THE AGONY who, as they did last time, delivered an outstanding 60 minutes of powerful rock'n'roll. Their music is powerful and also melodic with some great hooks
As with the other bands tonight bass and drums powered along forming a glorious basis for the brilliant lead guitar work and vocals. The focal point of the band is the singer/guitarist who also handles all of the stage announcements, as well as delivering the material with a great and powerful voice while playing guitar. All four musicians are high quality and blend together into a brilliant collective whole, playing exciting and powerful rock'n'roll from the heart .
This was a terrific night... 3 superb rock bands each playing a brilliant and hugely enjoyable set... where will you get a better party than seeing three such great bands delivering such fabulous music for just a tenner... superb night, absolute loved all three bands and the whole evening
Keep music live... keep music real... support your local venues
