"Classic Rock N' Roll with a 21st Century twist"



Rockburn was born out of the frustration of seeing a lack of bands having the balls to play 'all out' Rock N' Roll. With a foundation of Booming, Bluesy beats and Punchy, Rhythmic bass playing combined with monstrous guitar riffs and "Great raspy vocals" the band are able to continually write hard hitting catchy Rock N' Roll songs which has seen them described as "A breath of fresh air".

With songs based on Love, Life and Drinking, complete with memorable riffs and "Totally Infectious" sing along chorus's fans keep enjoying and praising both Rockburn's self-released Lp's and live shows and keep coming back for more.

As well as playing festivals across the country, Gigging hard off there own backs, Supporting larger acts they have also toured with signed bands including Wishbone Ash and The Drella's (Ft Ex-Space front man Tommy Scott). In doing so the band have been able to build up a dedicated fan base across the UK and even in America which has seen them being invited to play in some of the most iconic venues in the UK including the prestigious Cavern Club in Liverpool and the world famous Glasgow Barrowlands.

In May 2009 the band began working with Gallus Music Management and have since seen the doors of opportunity thrown wide open for them. Recently the band have been starting to receive a lot of radio air-play throughout the country where the response has been excellent and even seen them win Rock Radio's (96.3FM) future classics where they won with 91% of the vote.

The band have just finished recording sessions at the Foundry Music Lab in Motherwell, Lanarkshire where their songs have been produced by the legendary Sandy Jones and Graeme Duffin (Wet Wet Wet's producer and guitarist) and now have the first single 'Night on Fire' ready for a planned release in February 2010. As well as the single release early in 2010 the band will be playing hard across the country and Europe throughout 2010 to gain further support and and promote their debut single and any others that follow.

Its exciting times for both the band and fans alike and we hope to see you all in 2010.

    • New demo review from ScreamLite Records

      “The demo itself immediately got us dancing, which is a fantastic sign when it comes to a band who are heavily connected with their 70’s blues rock. The first 2 tracks were typical blues rock stompers with catchy riffs and drum beats. The vocals were raspy and well executed, putting us in mind of a young Robert Plant (Led Zeppelin I/II era) and everything was mixed in equal measure. The final track of the demo “The Last Stop” demonstrated a new dynamic, still classic blues but with country touches, again all mixed beautifully. Despite this being an under-represented genre in the modern alternative rock scene (The White Stripes being the flag carriers for the genre) this still has a sense of the new about it, no bad thing in itself. A modern twist on something as well regarded as 70’s blues rock shows how Rockburn have been creative in their approach. Overall this is a cracking little demo with a band who already have high expectations with airplay at Parkhead & Anfield (Celtic & Liverpool FC respectively) and thoroughly deserve more”.

      Hi Everyone,

      We've just been told some AWESOME news! Our new Single ''Night on Fire'', which will be released early next year, is to be played before the match on Boxing Day @ Celtic Park Stadium!! Hopefully there will be a capacity crowd for the home game and thousands of people listening! If your a season ticket holder or are going to the game, be sure to listen out for it!

      This will give us great exposure leading up to our New Year's Eve gig @ The Tavern in Motherwell, and most importantly our first ever King Tuts gig on the 15th of Jan! Get in touch if you would like tickets as they are available NOW!!!

      Thanks
