No Ordinary show:
A stadium sounding rock show like no other!
Crammed with anthems, mashups and sings longs, the set has been carefully curated to take the audience on a journey that will leave them breathless, sweaty and crying out for more. With over 15 years of experience playing concerts to audiences all over the world, this band truly know 'what works’.
History:
Formed in 2008, Rick sought out the best session players in the UK to create a band that surpassed all others in the corporate world. His idea that playing ‘covers’ shouldn’t mean that you lose any of the energy and excitement and that they had to be played as well as, and perhaps even better than, the originals meant the RPJ Band show became the most booked band in event world.
Since then, the band have become the industry standard and over the years have played in excess of 1000 shows to over 2,000,000 people!
Whilst the band love the corporate world they are most at home on a big festival stage, and in 2022 they opened the Isle Of White Festival to huge acclaim, and went on to play main stage at many other festivals including Pub In The Parks and both Carfest North and South with them cited as the ‘Best act of the Weekend’.
This led famous DJ and Presenter Chris Evans to aptly name them ’The ultimate party starters!’
So for the ultimate festival set, there is only one band that will bring the fire like no other. Rick and the boys can’t wait to play for you.
