Early 2011 saw the beginning of a great new classic rock band. Well, we say new, in fact these guys have played with some of the biggest names in rock history. Now working together to bring to life some true classic tracks with a playing pedigree that most can only dream of, 2011 is the year X-UFO come out to play. The band features card-carrying UFO members Laurence Archer, Danny Peyronel and Clive Edwards, with Rocky Newton, from [aritst]UFO spin-off MSG. Laurence (Guitar & Vocals), also played with Phil Lynott’s Grandslam, Stampede and Tarzen; Danny (Lead Vocals), the original UFO keyboardsman/vocalist, with the HMK and Tarzen; Clive (drums), with Wild Horses, Pat Travers, Uli Jon Roth and Lionheart and Rocky (Bass & Vocals), with the Michael Schenker Group, Royal Blood (with Alex Masi) and Lionheart. Between them, these boys’ track records range from writing hits for UFO, THIN LIZZY, MSG, MEATLOAF and even DAVID GILMOUR, to singing vocal harmonies on DEF LEPPARD’s mega-classics Pyromania and Hysteria. As you can see the bands’ pedigree is in no doubt. And as for the show you can expect some great classics based around the UFO album Lights out in Tokyo and No Heavy Petting and spanning the ultra-classic UFO years. The band are fired up and ready to go, so prepare yourselves for a cracker of a show with X-UFO http://xufo.co.uk http://www.facebook.com/pages/X-Ufo/#!/pages/X-Ufo/202423463118622 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DjR7dbnGStY
