Rainmaker

Review: The female lead singer, Candy Harris, has a Janis Joplin quality to her singing. The band also has Stevie Baber (Guitar and backing vocals), Dave Shepherd (bass guitar and vocals), and Glenn Brickwood (drums). One of the guitarists wears a top hat, and the other a cowboy hat. They play covers of rock classics and some newer disco anthems by artists such as Bon Jovi, Cameo, Deep Purple, Dylan, Guns n Roses, Led Zeppelin, Meredith Brooks, Primal Scream, Steppenwolf, KT Tunstall, and U2. Simon Hall who used to play guitar has now retired, he didn't look that old to me.

Rik Martin Trio, The

Review: The first real surprise about this band is that it has four members, though only three perform at once, Rik Martin (lead vocals and guitar), Helen Watt (Drums and percussion), and sharing the duties on bass guitar is Dave Wheeler and Alan O'Connor. They play an eclectic mix of electric and acoustic blues / funk / rock originals and covers.
