What does Medusa Touch Rock Band sound like?
Many people who come to our gigs say we
sound like Iron Maiden meets Heart!
We have two guitarists (Rog and Trev) who complement each other's playing beautifully to achieve a fast-paced, melodic twin guitar sound. Bryan the drummer takes full advantage of his thunderously large kit complete with two bass drums, while Allison, the lead singer and bass player, has a very powerful rock voice with a great range.
So, how did the Rock Band
Medusa Touch start?
Medusa Touch was formed from the merging of the remainders of 2 successful Midlands bands - One Month's Notice and Magus (formerly V). Both bands were very well supported in their own right around the Midlands' gig circuit, appearing at well known rock venues such as MAG rallies, Custom Rock & Blues Festival and the Robin Hood (Dudley) to name but a few.
Allison, the bass player and lead singer from Magus, saw One Month's Notice perform live a few times around the Midlands and occasionally jammed with them on stage. Firm friendships grew and, eventually, when the One Month's Notice singer emigrated to the USA and left the band, Allison and Bryan (the drummer) from Magus joined forces with guitarists Trev and Rog from One Month's to create Medusa Touch - and that same harmonious rock line-up has remained since Christmas 1999.
Medusa Touch has always played a range of classic rock covers blended with our own original material, creating a unique sound and style played with passion and love of rock music. This firm belief in the future of true rock music has produced 2 popular CDs of our own material.
The combination of Alli's powerful vocal style, Trev and Rog's twin lead guitars, Bryan's driving double bass drum kit and close vocal harmonies, all blend to give Medusa Touch a unique sound.
We are an experienced live band with the ability to please crowds. Whether it be as a support band, sole act or headliner, our blend of classic rock covers and turbo charged original material has built up a loyal following across the Midlands.
