Gary, a talented vocalist, guitarist and accomplished front man, who sounds more like Rod than Rod had the concept of Rods Faces in his head for many years, but like so many other musical projects his contemporaries have,  never got it up and running.

A brief meeting with Mickie introduced Gary to his unsurpassed electric / acoustic guitar skills.. This combined with his rock star looks, unmistakable guitar style and a low slung ‘original ’70.s Zemaitis’ convinced Gary that he had found his “Woody”.

Finding the right drummer, tight, innovative and with technical ability would have been difficult, if  they were unable to not convince Chris, working with one of the top Status Quo tribute acts to join.  With Chris in, the concept firmly established and core players in place, the next task were now get other members to complete the line up.

The live success of Rods Faces would rely on a tight back line / rhythm section, only a synchronized bass player and drummer will achieve this. Chris contacted his old mate Gordon, whose variety of styles and awesome drive had enable Chris and Gordon to jointly deliver on previous projects. Without hesitation, Gordon, who was living in Dubai, was now in. Upon his return, initial rehearsals and planning got underway.

With vocals, guitar, bass and drums in place the final member, the keyboard player had to be found.  Along came Dan. Armed with his keyboard wizardry, musical; experience, and additional backing vocals, the line up was now complete.
