Turn up the nostalgia and step back into the golden era of rock with AQUILLA
Drawing deep inspiration from Wishbone Ash’s iconic twin-guitar attack, Gary Moore’s electrifying riffs, and Paul Rodgers brooding blues-infused vocals, AQUILLA deliver a show of bona fide rock hits that feel both nostalgic and fiercely original.
The five-piece powerhouse from Devon bring forth soaring twin guitars coupled with stunning multi-layered harmony vocals.
It's a concert-style sound: tight, powerful and melodic: the heart of rock itself.
AQUILLA also showcase songs from their debut album, ‘The View From Here’, a true vinyl-era concept album that takes you on an immersive journey. Every riff, every chorus, feels like it was forged in the golden age of rock, yet it all sounds thrillingly fresh in the here and now.
Whether you're a die-hard fan of 70s/80s rock, a lover of the vinyl era or just someone who craves songs with heart and muscle, AQUILLA put on a show that hits with the melodic punch of classic AOR rock. Don’t miss it.
Featuring the music of: Wishbone Ash, Gary Moore, The Eagles, Toto, Free, Scorpions, Journey, Queen, Rainbow, Kansas and others….
About the band:
AQUILLA are a dynamic rock band held in the highest regard by their peers. Made up of five former professional musicians, they perform both unique rock covers and original material with a powerhouse live concert-style sound.
They are known for their sumptuous vocal harmonies and powerful twin guitars. Although the band members have toured the UK and Europe at various times during their respective careers, the South West has always been ‘home’, and many of the bands they have been a part of have been based locally and gigged extensively in the area.
The band supported (to high acclaim) the legendary Wishbone Ash at the Exeter Phoenix, and have also been special guests to funk rock icons The Blockheads on three separate occasions in recent years.
