Break My Heart Again‘, ‘Is This Love‘, ‘Here I Go Again‘ and many others.

With a band line up comprising professional recording artists who have shared stages
with the likes of Kiss, Motley Crue, Saxon, Kid Creole, Toto, Mr Big, Faith No More, Status
Quo, Bon Jovi, Blur & Whitesnake themselves.

Members from some of the world’s most
respected tribute bands, extensive worldwide touring from Europe to the USA and Japan to
Australia, syndicated worldwide tv appearances, multiple features in the world’s leading rock
music publications & a combined musical experience of over one hundred and twenty years,
Whitesnake UK can proudly boast to having some of the most accomplished personnel in any
tribute band.

Formed in 2005, Whitesnake UK have performed extensively through the UK gaining a
reputation for being THE tribute to Whitesnake whilst at the same time creating an
unforgettable live show which has seen them play to sold out shows & festivals making them
one of the hottest tribute acts currently working the UK circuit.

Whitesnake UK concentrate on reproducing that classic Whitesnake sound without the need
for artificial backing tracks, gimmicks or wigs for that matter!

Fully supported by past & present members of Whitesnake with a 110% live
experience that will have you out of your seats dancing & shouting for more,………Whitesnake
UK are certain to deliver!

If Carlsberg did tribute bands………………………………

TIM READ
Lead singer, Tim Reed is the epitome of the legendary ‘snake’ frontman himself.
Mesmerising the ladies and championing the men with his stage prowess & vocal
brilliance. A lifelong snake fan, Tim was the guitarist for UK stalwarts, Chrome Molly as
well as nwnhm luminaries, Demon.
Though he will probably be mostly know for his
decade long stint with Limehouse Lizzy.
Tim is an all round accomplished musician and
has recently released his debut album “Read Out Loud” to rave reviews.

DANNY LEE JAMES / GREG DARBY
Guitarists, Danny Lee James & Greg Darby are as close knit a guitar duo as you’ll find.
Complementing each other’s style’s with ease & finesse. From the bluesey early snake
riffs to the all out thunder of latter day snake virtuoso’s Reb Beach, Doug Aldrich & now,
Joel Hoekstra.
Both accomplished guitarists, Greg has extensive touring experience with cult band, King
Rocker, whilst Danny has travelled the world as an original recording artist with
Fahrenheit & also as the guitarist in Dressed To Kill, the world’s longest running kiss
tribute.

DUNCAN COOK
Ivory tinkler & all round gifted musician, Duncan Cook is the band’s glue.
Enhancing all
era’s of the snake’s music with his flowing keyboard skills. From the likes of Wine,
Women & Song, to the flowing power of Best Years, Duncan’s keyboard wizardry will
leave snake fans mesmerised.

PAUL THOMPSON
Bass player and the baby of the band.
Paul already has a very extensive portfolio of
prestigious shows across Europe to his name as well as numerous recordings with
various recoding artists.
Crunching your rib cage with that unmistakable Whitesnake
groove, but the real reason the band bring him along is he’s eye candy for the girls.

MATTHEW BLAKOUT
Last but by no mean’s least….Every snake has a tail….& WSUK are extremely proud to
have a ‘tiger’ as its tail.
Matt Blakout from legendary Welsh glam rock icons Tigertailz is
the WSUK time keeper.
Visual and exciting to watch, Matt’s experience & resume is even more impressive.
Having played the world over and sharing the stage with the likes of Whitesnake
themselves amongst some other of the biggest names ever in music history, Seeing is
believing….and Matt never fails to deliver!
