A blistering five-piece line up fronted by the powerful vocals of lead singer Wendy, this high-energy band will guarantee a chain reaction of non-stop dancing with hit after hit from the rock’n'roll sixties, funky disco seventies, back to school eighties, classic ninties through to modern day. All professional and internationally experienced musicians, band members have appeared at many prestigious venues, from Ronnie Scott’s, The Royal Albert Hall, Blenheim Palace, The Savoy and the Leander Club, to touring with Hot Chocolate, Jamie Cullum, Lisa Stansfield and even playing privately for the Australian and Indian cricket teams in Dubai.
Wendy Working as a professional and semi-professional lead singer, Wendy has delighted audiences in hundreds of venues across the UK and internationally. Anyone who has seen Wendy perform live will agree that she has that rare combination of sparkling on-stage presence and a voice to die for (not to mention being fairly easy on the eye!!). Wendy loves nothing more than to front up Chemistry, and has consistently delivered stunning vocal performances with energy and excitement. As the lone girl in the band, Wendy is also remarkably tolerant of the guys’ various habits – as long as she has her radio mic, a sparkly outfit and an audience ready to party, she’s happy.
Bill Bill is the showman in the band and just loves to wow a crowd! He likes nothing better than to launch into a powerful and emotional guitar solo and watch the faces in the audience glow with excitement and anticipation… in his mind’s eye, anyway. Bill has been playing and singing in bands for many years both here in the UK and abroad. Best known for his legendary rock solo renditions, Bill believes that he’s one of the finest guitarists in the Universe and boy, don’t the rest of the band know it! Far from being the shy type, Bill will always be the first to jump off the stage into the arms of his adoring fans, put on the most outrageous wigs, glasses and false teeth, or sprint out of the room onto the patio (all whilst massively soloing, of course) to get the few remaining members of the crowd to come in and dance to “Summer Of ‘69″ or “Sweet Child Of Mine”.
Dave Our drummer can be summed up in one word… The Rock (okay, two words). Dave has played in rock, pop and party bands for 384 years, and has forgotten more about “multi-pulse ostinatos” than the rest of us will ever know. Unlike many drummers, Dave practically invented “light and shade” and his ability to switch between delicate ballads, pumping disco and huge rock anthems is one of the band’s great assets. Dave’s reliability on-stage is just as evident off-stage; no matter how early the rest of us arrive at a venue, Dave is already there and set up. Dave is a great drummer (he could make statues dance), and a delight to work with – all in all a bona-fide 168 beats-per-minute powerhouse.
Geoff If Dave is The Rock, then Geoff loves TO wrok. You’d never guess that this unassuming, softly spoken Yorkshireman could turn into what can only be described as a Machine of Bass. Switching between his Fender Precision and Warwick Rock bass guitars, Geoff occasionally spontaneously breaks out in a curious, but highly entertaining high-steppin’ dance (which we speculate that he learned when on tour with Hot Chocolate). He has also been caught “machine-gunning” the crowd with his guitar, which he thinks is still cool (correctly in the event, since everything Geoff does is cool). Geoff not only plays a key role in everything that we do, but keeps us laughing from start to finish.
Pete If music were the food of love, Pete would be Mr Barry White himself! In no particular order Pete plays piano, bass, harpsichord, guitar, saxophone, double bass, flute, recorder and frisbee – any one to a level that most people only dream of. Best known for his stunning keyboard performances, Pete is a superb Jazz musician and has regularly performed at Ronnie Scott’s and music festivals around the country. With fingers like an octopus, Pete simultaneously provides sparkling piano, strings and funky brass section to authenticate any style of song, be it pop, rock, funk, soul or ballad. If this weren’t enough, Pete also sings an excellent third part harmony with Bill and Wendy. Just how he manages to do all of this is anybody’s guess!!!
