Voodoo Johnson
UK Tour
“Cleverly honed classic rock with global aspirations.” – Kerrang
Voodoo Johnson have already made their mark on rockers up and down the country with their debut album
10,000 Horses, and now they're set to embark on a UK tour destined to catapult them to greatness.
Formed in Birmingham in 2007, the band are Nik Taylor-Stoakes (vocals), Carl Gethin (guitar), Paul
Gethin (guitar), David Barker (drums) and Rich Bellamy (bass). 2010 saw them release their debut album
to massive critical acclaim, receiving accolades from publications such as Kerrang, Metal Hammer, Rock
Sound and Classic Rock Magazine. They've also received regular airplay from Kerrang radio's Johnny
Doom as well as the God of metal, and BBC 6 Music presenter, Bruce Dickinson. With so much support
behind them, it wasn't long before they caught the eye of other well established classic rock outfits, which led to
them supporting Europe on their UK Balls and Banners Tour last February, and has also seen them share a
stage with Motorhead and Monster Magnet at Hard Rock Hell and Guilfest.
Voodoo Johnson have taken the classic heavy rock formula and catapulted it into the present, with their
combination of face melting guitars and throbbing percussion elevating Nik's powerful vocals to the forefront of
the music, providing fans with catchy metal hooks and gruff vocal harmonies that are a welcome breath of fresh
air in this current climate of screamo driven rock. With their sound hearkening back to the days when Metallica
and Iron Maiden dominated the rock scene, their upcoming tour is sure to cause an explosion in mosh pits up
all over the UK.
You can catch them performing their energetic live show at one of the dates listed below:
