Formerly
known as Ode to Joe this London/Portsmouth Aerosmith tribute band have changed
their name and their guitarist and how transformed themselves into Aerosmyth.
Dave (lead vocals) said “ Its been great, the fans response has been
tremendous, they really have been supporting us, and we get a warm welcome
everywhere we go”.
The
band have an excellent sound and since their new lead guitarist John Grindey,
joined the group, they even sound better than Aerosmith. When asked why, John replies. “Well, I know they have a lot
more money and gear than us, but we have more equipment. I am a professional guitar player, and I am in this band to
help the guys out, so with my GIT (Guitar Institute of Technology) training in
California (colleagues include, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, and Guns and Roses) I
have found this effortless, which in turn has enhanced the bands sound.”
The
band have been gigging all along the south coast, from Bournemouth to London and
even though they have their own style, the sound of Aerosmith is uncanny and
quite unmistakable.
The
band hope to continue their success and have embraced new technology with an
excellent website. The site has
become a focal point for fans to communicate and get the latest news about the
band. The site address is http://members.tripod.com/aerosmyth1.
