THE SWEENEYS - Formed in November 2001. They play some of the worlds greatest songs from the 70s - stuff most other bands overlook but huge hits all the same.
Ain't ya sick of so many bands churning out the same setlist? Do you wonder how many different versions of Brown Eyed Girl, Hard To Handle or Mustang Sally you can bare? Then this lot are for you. It's 3 piece Guitar Rock but not as you know it! Count the times you say to yourself "Great song, forgot all about that one".

Pete - Guitar & Lead Vocals
Smash - Drums, Lead & Backing Vocals
Huggy - Bass & Backing Vocals

The 70s - That's where they're from, that's what they play. Not the Glam Sham, wig wearing act offered by other so-called "Tribute" bands. These are songs lovingly picked from The Sweeneys own record collection, the songs they grew up with,
the sound of their generation.

So think early Roxy Music, 10cc, Mott The Hoople, Sparks, Wings, Joe Jackson, Lou Reed, Tom Jones, Al Green, Curtis Mayfield, Iggy Pop, Elvis, Bowie, Springsteen, Osmonds, Undertones, SAHB, Walker Brothers, Golden Earring, The O Jays, The Pretenders, The Who, The Faces, The Doors... get the picture?
