OUR BAND MEMBERS

OUR BAND MEMBERS...

PETE McCALL - Rod Stewart

Pete started his career singing songs from a wide variety of artistes, but people kept saying to him that he sounded so much like Rod Stewart. He has always been a big Rod Stewart fan and has seen him live on numerous occasions, so it was an easy decision to become a solo Rod tribute. He hasn’t looked back since and soon became very successful, receiving rave reviews in Europe as well as in the UK and is also very highly thought of by the fan club and other stalwart Rod Stewart fans worldwide. This is not surprising, as he is undoubtably the number one sound alike, whose attention to detail is paramount. 
However, Pete wanted to take his career even further, so a few years ago he added a live band and started working on the production for The Rod Stewart Songbook theatre show, which is now touring venues throughout the UK. 

TERRY BELL - Keyboard & Vocals

Terry’s musical career has spanned nearly 50 years, so he brings a wealth of experience to the band. He has performed in numerous groups, playing all genres of music, from musical theatre to rock, has worked with many named acts and for 10 years was the keyboard player for Sir Ken Dodd, playing theatres throughout the UK. Terry also works at his local Performing Arts College, is a songwriter, arranger and has been very instrumental in the production of this show. 

SIDNEY ARTEZ - Lead Guitar & Vocals

An accomplished, creative musician, gifted with improvisational skills. Playing and teaching has been a constant cycle for many years now and he is proud to share the stage with the calibre of musicians in The Rod Stewart Songbook. Sid has various music qualifications under his belt and continually strives to be better than he was the day before.

TONY BEASTY - Rhythm Guitar

Tony plays electric & acoustic guitars, and also mandolin. He started playing at age 13 and has worked extensively throughout the UK and Europe playing many different styles of music. 
A fan of Rod Stewart’s music since the early 1970s, Tony bases his style on Rod’s early guitarist Jim Cregan. 

GARY O'NEAL - Bass Guitar & Vocals

Gary is a very experienced bass player, and has played in various groups over the years, performing at many prestigious venues all around the country.
His very groove orientated playing style, complemented by the drums, creates the backbone of the sound & drives the band forwards.

GEORGE COOK - Drums

George has played drums in many styles over the years, including original Grunge and Rock groups, as well as Heavy Rock, Blues, Funk & Disco cover bands. He has, of late, played for tribute acts including AC/DC, Blondie and Billy Idol. 
“Our Rod shows are great fun to play. He has covered so many styles over the decades & there is something for everyone. We really try and bring the party to town”.

RICK DAVIS - Saxophone

A latecomer to the music world & essentially self taught, Rick has swapped weaving in & out of football defences for intertwining his lines around a melody. 
His soaring sound has been heard across the country in soul bands & as support for renowned artists such as Steve Harley, Paul Jones, Dave Kelly & Maggie Bell.
