SHORT BIO
Genre : Rock / Metal Tribute Band
Founded : 2015
Based in West Midlands
BIOGRAPHY
Electric Circus UK are the ONLY UK based W.A.S.P tribute band
Formed in late 2015, with a deep passion for the outrageous US outfit, it was decided a tribute act was needed that truly emulated this great Los Angeles band.
They are a Midlands based band comprising of :-
Johnny Law - Vocals / Guitar (Dudley)
Shane Sparkz - Bass Guitar (Wolverhampton)
Eddie Edwards - Guitar (Wolverhampton)
Rich "Animal" Smith - Drums (Derby)
Attention to detail is absolutely paramount. You will see on stage, a custom made "Blackie Lawless" microphone stand with illuminated skull, an outfit with actual steel saw blades, and period correct guitars also customised, large backdrop, and various stage props.
Five months of solid rehearsals were done before getting their first gig.
The first three albums are the preferred era.
Favourites like, Animal, Love Machine, Wild Child, On Your Knees, Blind In Texas, are included in the set list.
September 27th 2016 Electric Circus UK supported Chris Holmes on his Mean Man tour in Leicester, and proudly joined him on stage for I Wanna Be Somebody. He said, it was 20 years since he last played that song.
The band's Facebook page only went live in February 2016, and already 2000+ members have joined. https://www.facebook.com/ElectricCircusUK/?fref=ts
Electric Circus UK are a high energy tribute band that promises to provide the ultimate W.A.S.P. experience.
Welcome, We bid you Welcome, To life inside the Electric Circus.
