Dirty Deeds - A great Rock Covers Band

Ready for some Dirty Deeds?

A time for Dirty Deeds!

Dirty Deeds are a great local band that are building a terrific reputation in the local area and beyond.

I heard about them long before I saw them, with people telling me how good they were.

When I eventually did see them I discovered the hype was well justified.

Dirty Deeds have been together now for about 6 years and have played tons of venues all around the South of the UK including Oxford, Swindon, Reading, Bristol and London.

Their style is a mixture of Rock, Blues and Funk. They write their own songs but mostly cover a lot of other bands and artists including AC/DC, Guns 'N' Roses, Led Zeppelin, Radiohead, Chuck Berry, Jet and Queen to name but a few.

They finished work on their first album in the summer of 2009.

If you are interested in finding a great band for your event, whether that is a corporate, wedding, christening, barbecue, charity and fundraising event or you just want a great gig at your local pub or venue, you can do no better than booking Dirty Deeds.

We are quite well serviced in our area with great bands - this is one of the best.

Email them at dirty_deeds@live.co.uk to check availability and they will get straight back to you.

You can also hear some clips from their album here.

Believe me - they are good!
