On guitar and vocals, Luke Mercer gets strong influence from the bluesy rock and roll and funk sounds of the 70’s. He brings a sweet and sour, bone crunching blues sound to the band.
On bass guitar and vocals, Michael Conefrey is heavily influenced by the 70’s classic rock style. He provides the band with its underlying driving-blues basslines.
Hard-hitting funk drummer Eoghan O’ Kelly has been playing drums since he was just 14 and adds those groovy rhythms into the mix of this rock and roll factory.
On guitar and vocals - Anthony Mannion has been playing guitar since he was 12 years of age. Over the years he has developed his original style which brings screaming guitars and rhythms of the funk!
Influences
Oddsocks Revival are influenced by all walks of music, the energy from a session in a pub, or some house party, or at any festival campsite where the guitars are floating about and the songs are played, but if you want to narrow things down, all the blues greats including Rory Gallagher, Stevie Ray Vaghaun, James Brown, John Lee Hooker, Son House, Muddy Waters, Led Zeppelin, Thin Lizzy and John Frusciante to name but a few.
Sounds Like
Oddsocks Revival was born in Co.Sligo, Ireland in the summer of 2003, with the sole purpose of playing you good time Rock & Roll, Funk and Blues . A striking stage presence and blend of music styles has given them a solid rep as a band who will keep the good times rolling.
Over the years the lads have built up a strong set of original tunes and the past two years have seen the band develop a truly original sound mixing humbucking blues and dirty funk grooves. Together with twin guitar leads and powerful four part vocal harmonies the Oddsocks Revival have certainly set themselves apart from other present day bands.
With an eclectic genre mix, Oddsocks revival attract a dedicated following of groove lovers aging from 16-60 and always deliver to rockin' expectations
