Hi everyone! Raptor are a Psychedelic Rock originals band based in Bristol, described by BBC Introducing as an assault of fuzz driven guitar grooves and hard-hitting drums, we take much inspiration from 60’s and 70’s music as well as newer artists of all genres. The band is currently made up of myself and my brother Adam, we are 23 and 21 and we write and produce all of our own music. We’ve been together for 9 years and have opened for artists including Robert Plant, Dr Feelgood, Mick Ralphs, Deborah Bonham, The Groundhogs and Goldray - as well as playing our own shows at venues/festivals all over the UK.
We are looking for a committed, hard rocking bass player who is able to play live, write and record music with us! We have just finished recording our debut album and have plans to release it with Brighton based record label ‘Don’t tell Anyone records’ this Autumn. We’re getting ready for a September UK tour with DTA1 too!
Our many influences include Led Zeppelin, Cream, Tame Impala, Black Sabbath, Queens Of The Stone Age, Rival Sons, The Beatles, Demob Happy, The Rolling Stones, Nirvana and The Who!
Here are links to our 2015 EP, 2017 Double Single and our new single released July this year: https://raptortheband.bandcamp.com
