LEAD GUITARIST, Dick Middleton has a truly impressive musical CV. As a very young professional player Dick toured with some of the greats including the one and only, Gene Vincent (Be-Bop-a-Lula), Mungo Jerry (Summertime), Johnny Halliday (France). Still playing professionally, Dick's enthusiasm doesn't wane, and this is reflected in his fabulous guitar riffs... second to NONE!
Again a full-time professional, KEYBOARD man Frazer Wigg has an enviable reputation as one of the finest and most experienced piano men in the UK. Backing such famous people as Chris Farlowe, or Miller Anderson (Spencer Davis Group), Frazer has toured extensively across the UK/Europe and the USA. Truly a class act!
And last but very definitely not least, the backline is comprised of Kevin "Kingsnake" Roberts, whose rock-solid BASS GUITAR drives the band with an energy seldom achieved by ordinary musicians. Like the other guys in the band Kevin is a full-time professional.
DRUMMER, "English Willie" Footman, has played mainly in the Tampa Bay area of Florida, where he had the pleasure of jamming with some of the greats, such as Gregg Allman (Allman Brothers Band), Mike Kach (Dickie Betts and Great Southern), Garry Gazzardo (Marshal Tucker Band), Pat MacDonald (Charlie Daniels Band).
"SOUTHERN NIGHTS" is one exceptionally classy band, whose professional line-up is your guarantee of the very best music!
