   About Texan Peacocks
"The band's stage presence has a vibrant and utterly infectious energy about it that you would be hard pressed to find in most professional bands these days. Their renditions of 'Roxanne' (by the Police) & 'You Really got Me' (by the Kinks) are almost chilling in their accuracy................................................................................................................ On a scale of one to ten, cover bands usually range from a weak three to at the most a six (if you're feeling really generous). The same cannot be said for the Texan Peacocks who will certainly get your foot tapping within seconds no matter how cynical you are................................................................................................................ Where do we begin.OH MY GOD! I was lucky enough to have seen the band at a gig before hand and I knew instantly I wanted them for our wedding, and boy we were not disappointed. If you have never heard/seen/listened to the Texan Peacocks before you need to get off your backsides now and make the effort!................................................................................................................ We rocked the night away with the superb Texan Peacocks. We could not have asked for a better bunch of people and such a fantastic sounding band that played a great mix of rock songs. We have no hesitation in recommending them for any occasion and if anyone is thinking about booking, dont ponder ... just do it!................................................................................................................ The musicianship of the band is superb and frontman Tex's vocals are quite stunning, his pitch perfect delivery enhancing every song. His range of styles from Sting to Liam Gallagher to Morrisey, and more.. is remarkable. Top solid drumming, warm driving bass, super harmonies and percussion; and rip-snorting guiter playing from the other four guys certainly complete the brilliant Peacocks sound............................................................................................................... Stratford on a damp autumn evening..long week at work... ended up in small venue with a crowd made up people of all ages moshing to one of the best cover bands Ive ever seen. Fantastic! There is something that sets Texan Peacocks aside from other cover bands. They do songs they love with passion and an uncanny precision; Rolling Stones, XTC, Blondie, The Smiths, Undertones, Kaiser Chiefs... Frontman, Tex, leads the band with tongue firmly in cheek and with a panache that makes the songs on the Texan Peacocks set list seem like their own rather than an array of covers from the last 40 years. Book em for sure!............................................................................................................... Thanks for such a great performance guys! Between rushing around organizing things I wondered into the main marquee to find 200 people jumping around to Message in a bottle! You really set the night alive and your efforts were greatly appreciated by all 1000 guests and the Ball Committee".................
