Out of the ashes of dozens of bands rises Stand Alone. There's no denying that individually these guys have been around. Featuring ex members of some of this country's best rock bands, Stand Alone aren't short on experience and put their own size 12 boot print on no bullshit, pure power street Rock 'n' Roll. These boys bring back the Oz Rock 'n' Roll that's been missing from your local pub for too many years.  

To list their backgrounds would take hours so instead just come and see them and face their brutal wall of sound. A little bit punk, a whole lot of Oz Rock'n'Roll. With no member under 6'2 these guys are big in stature and huge on sound!

 

·      Damo - vocals

·      Stephen 'Kingy' King - bass/vocals
