Rocks Off

Rocks Off are Sweden's greatest Rolling Stones tribute and were formed in Gothenburg in 1995. Rocks Off played at Beatleweek for the first time last year to exceptional reviews, performing 7 gigs in 4 days and are only the second Stones act after The Counterfeit Stones to appear at the festival. Front man Tony Johnson moves and sounds just like Mick Jagger, while resembling (so he say's) Mick's much younger twin brother! Roger Mikander is excellent as 'Keef', albeit a blond version, but he certainly can play guitar like Keith Richards! A man who should be suffering from multiple personality disorder is Lars Elf as he portrays the Stones three guitarists; Brian Jones, Mick Taylor and Ronnie Wood, while there is far less confusion for Pär Lilja on drums, as the ever laid-back Mr Cool, Charlie Watts and Torgny Ehrieder holding them all together as Bill Wyman on bass.

The band will be rocking the crowds at Chavasse Park on Sunday and again as part of the Mathew Street Festival on the Marquee Stage in Dale Street on Monday, before really getting the joint jumpin' at our late night VIP party in the Adelphi.

Rocks Off had a terrific time last year and are really looking forward to playing again at this years Beatles Festival.
