What people have said about us"

A review following our gig at The Roebuck, Burton on Trent 16th February 2025

" A chilly Sunday afternoon was warmed up nicely by Midlands Rock Band, Rattler. Lead vocalist Martin is blessed with a wonderful high-registered voice. Behind him is Guitarist Richard. This man knows his way skilfully up that Les Paul-style fretboard! Bassman Phil "wears the trousers" with aplomb. No Rush-style histrionics, just punctuating Drummer John's unerring back beat. John never missed one, boys and girls! Steppenwolf, Stones and ZZ Top numbers are celebrated by Rattler. I dare you to not tap your feet. Martin will put the microphone under your nose. Sing yer hearts out, wannabe singers! Rattler. The boys. Book 'em now!
