Moroccan Roll
Based in Brisbane
About this act
Everyone in this band sings, which is rarer than it sounds and changes what a covers set can do. Bruce Tate drums and sings, Maggie Tate is out front on vocals, Malcolm Ferguson plays guitar and sings, Kevin Gray does the same on bass. The material is classic rock and roll from the fifties through to the seventies, played by a Brisbane four piece who know the harmonies matter as much as the riffs. Rock and roll themed nights suit them best, though weddings, festivals, private birthdays and corporate events all get the same set.
