About
We're ready to believe YOU!
Behold! A band of loud, splendid rascals serving up bombastic rock anthems with a gleam in the eye and a custard cream in the waistcoat pocket.
Rapscallion is what happens when classic rock gets tangled up in velvet curtains, waxed moustaches, and the kind of pomp usually reserved for Victorian parlours or pirate ships. Expect soaring guitar solos, lyrical absurdity, and a healthy disregard for modern sensibility.
The well versed rock aficionado will be delighted if not charmed by the notes of influence drawn from Queen, AC/DC, Foo Fighters, The Darkness, Guns ‘n’ Roses et al - but naturally, it would be remiss of us to mention that the result is splendidly unique.
RAPSCALLION ARE:
Moog Gravett: Guitar, Vocals
Dan Holloway: Bass, Backing Vocals
Jonathan Stanger: Drums
Adam Marchant: Guitar, Backing Vocals
QUOTES
“'Maximum Splendid’ is an excellent hard rock record in its own right, with well written, catchy, songs capturing a mid-1980’s Metal, if somewhat cheerful vibe... As a debut album ‘Maximum Splendid’ takes some beating.” - Graham Cushway
“"...Maximum Splendid is ... absolutely bang on and very well written/performed. Don’t let the humorous aspect mislead you, this is as good a rock album as you could expect from a more straight-laced act. Just funnier."” - Mosh
“This is classed by the band as “chap rock” and is similar to me to the eccentric genius that was Jim Steinman but with added British style humour. The music is real quality...” - Welsh Gene
