I heard it on the Radio

The most promising band of 2008! GET VEGAS leave heavy grooves and vibes, much like the band FREE did in the late 60s, with songs in your mind and soul, not easily erased. That's for sure!” All Right Now, Official Free and Official Bad Company websites Few young bands have embraced classic rock as fully as Get Vegas. This band are a godsend for rock fans who are tired of hearing the same old crap that is currently bombarding the airwaves. Get Vegas are real rock and roll. Rock music that is filled with immense warmth and passion. Dripping with a fierceness of a band that is laying it all on the line. These guys are very, very, damn good” All Access Magazine It’s not very often that a band comes along with a sound and energy like this; the last being the late 60’s when a young band called Free arrived, followed a few years later by the legendary Bad Company. Thirty-five years or so later and here are Get Vegas, a young band influenced heavily by the late 60’s and early 70’s British blues boom. They’re making classic rock sound as fresh and alive as it did back then while taking and developing the sound into the 21st century - a massive sound of dirty blues and gritty rock. Since their debut in August 2006, Get Vegas have rapidly built up a huge following, helped along by having tracks placed on the All Right Now website – the official website of Free and Bad Company The band also received the distinction of winning the 2006 Insangel Enigma Battle of the Bands followed in 2007 by winning the Red Bull Sponsored Battle of the Bands. August 2007 saw the band play Main Stage at the Bulldog Festival (Europe’s’ biggest bike festival) along side bands such as Status Quo and the Damned. September saw the band record their debut 4 track EP containing tracks: “Burning Soul”, “Lying Dreams”, “Nobody Else” and “Love Hound” In January 2008 the track “Lying Dreams” featured on the Classic Rock cover CD - “Bands You Need To Hear In 2008”. It has generated an amazing reaction from fans and the media with consequent radio plays and press in Europe and the US and a stream of fans desperate to get hold of more material. Letters followed in the February edition of Classic Rock raving about “Lying Dreams” on the previous CR cover cd which led to a full page article in the March edition. May 08 sees the band on tour with the legendary Bad Company!
