Leeds Rocker Johnny Storm played more than 800 gigs with his band, Memphis, in the late ’70’s and early ’80’s. He released two albums on the Magnum Force label - "Flame on!" and "For Greasy Kids only". He also appeared in 8 episodes of the ’70’s version of Jack Good’s "Oh Boy!" TV show - although he stresses that he’s never worn a high school cardigan in "real life"!
Johnny Storm and Memphis played their last gig in 1984.
Fast forward to 2008, Johnny’s back in business with The Johnny Storm Band, playing his own brand of Rock’n’Roll, Rockabilly and Country rock. Check out the gig list.
There’s a new CD coming soon. In the meantime, you can listen to some live tracks right here, or visit Youtube and see the Johnny Storm Band performing 3 of their original songs live.
