'The Cheaters' are a blues-rock based band, based in Newcastle -UK. We have been going for a few years and have become very popular on the live scene in the North East.
We have just recorded our first album 'The Train to Wilderness' and have issued it on the Independent label 'Blues Buddha Records'. We have tried to create an original album as well as honour some of our influences. 10 of the 12 tracks are our own songs with the exception of Robert Cray's 'That's What I'll Do' and Lowell Fulsome's 'Honey Hush'.
