Originated
in 2004, The REGZ started life playing a “one off” Christmas party just
for fun with a partially working PA system in a “downtown” bar
somewhere in the Old Market area!
However this “one off”
performance lead to an invite to play at a large charity party in the
February of 2005. After the success of the gig, the REGZ became an on
going project.
The line up has changed several times over the
years, as have the sound and indeed the stage show. The current line up
has been consistent since the beginning of 2008 and the band has gone
from strength to strength.
The REGZ love to entertain and draws
its inspiration and image from the 60’s and 70’s Soul, Funk, Pop and
rude boy Ska, that can take you from Aretha to Otis and James Brown to
The Specials.
So who are the REGZ??????????????????????
The band consist nine faces that incorporates a brass section who are known as the “Horny Horns”
Jim Dyke (bass) and Dave Hooper (sticks) drive the rhythm of the band,
hotly supported by Jon Madden on guitar and the wizard on keys known as
Colin Smith. This forms the spirit of the REGZ. The sweet soul of the
band is made up of Martyn “hot lips” Harries (trumpet) and Savio “sweet
lips” Pacini (trombone). The vocals are shared by two roses and a thorn
who are, Ruth, Charlene and Kevin Gregory (vox!). This forms the
harmonies and entertainment that are the REGZ!
The REGZ love an invite to any party and specialise in weddings, birthdays and corporate functions.
