16 TON ROCKERS BLOGSPOT IS ROLLING

Hello!

This is 16 Ton Rockers blogspot.

This is where you'll find info and things you won't find elsewhere about the band.

updates...news...links...info/background about the songs and lots of other things.


the 16 Ton Rockers are:

Spinx B'stard - Vocals/Harmonica
Palle Berg - Guitar/Backing Vocs
Pata Willcox - Guitar
Pelle Svedén - Bass
Pepz - Drums/Backing Vocs

Formed in October 2014. then with Freddy Luger on guitar. who left the band late 2015.

Musical influences The Clash, Sex Pistols, The Beatles, Hanoi Rocks, MC5...among others
The spirit of the 77-punk  will always be there...aswell as some roots rock reggae vibes.

Even though all members have been involved in the music scene for a long time,
We decided from the start not to be a nostalgia band, playing covers, looking back and pretending everything's ok...cos it's not!


We write the songs now. we are updated with what's going on.
Lyricwise there's a few political statements along with the usual sex, bugs n rock n roll themes.
No made up poetry, no songs from some hippie vision. Reality is the inspiration to it all.
All the listener has to know is, that we are the good guys, but sometimes we're really bad at it.
We are the rolemodels that your parents warned you about. 

Have a listen/come and see us... you know you want to.

We've recorded 2 demos, released only on Spotify/Itunes.etc.
2014 - The Vintage Retro Tapes 1977 (Previously Unreleased) -3 songs
2015 - Kung-Fu Kicks And Recycled Licks   -3 songs
2016 - The Råckst-R Demotapes (a compilation of the demo recordings)



Next stop:
27/3 PSB, Stockholm, Skånegatan 80, Sweden.
