About Me

With ages ranging from 12 to 16, the Crawford and Minett brothers have been performing the rock classics in venues in Newcastle and the Hunter since early 2005. Boosted by stage storming performances on the NRL Footy Show in 2005, the band has now been joined by the more mature Jarrod Daunt on vocals to present the authentic AC/DC tribute "Let There Be Rock" show. This show has been extremely popular-past performances include The Maitland Bike and Hotrod Show with the Gladiators, Annual Pubfest (Hinton) for 3 years, performing in front of 20 000 people at a Knights footy match in Newcastle, taking the stage at Rock City which is the biggest rock venue in Phuket, Thailand and the list goes on. Don't forget to check out the videos from 'The Let There Be Rock Show'-their AC/DC tribute. Leave a comment.In addition to this, Power-age have been knocking fans out with their own original power rock material which earned them a place in the Global Battle of the Bands at Darling Harbour last year.This was despite being much younger than their competitors. They were also chosen for a coveted support act role at 'The Rock Under The Stars' concert along with Mammal, Karnivool and headliners - Grinspoon.A recent song:Medicine Woman, performed at the KOFM radio Beach Party, 21st Sept, 2007 Newcastle, Australia

Influences: AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Bon Jovi, Jet, Deep Purple, Wolfmother, etc***********Most of our shows such as regular Bank Hotel job,Hinton Pubfest (outdoors) even the East Maitland Golf Club are family-friendly so bring your mates, relo's, girlfriend/boyfriend, neighbours, etc and experience POWERAGE!!!!! The following video was taken in mid 2006 at Shortland Hotel-one take only. Zac was only 11 years old at the time but has performed this in public since he was 10. The boys have come a long way since then-especially with their stage antics so seeing them LIVE now is even more exciting!Thunderstruck

Sounds Like:See influences. Our originals are coming together great-and proving popular at our shows Recording will be our next phase.Our AC/DC tribute shows are very popular. Jarrod Daunt, such an amazing lead vocalist. will continue performing with the boys for their AC/DC tribute shows.: See videos- Powerage performing AC/DC songs:(these were recorded nearly 18 months ago now and the boys have grown so much in experience-performance wise Thunderstruck, Jailbreak, Long Way To The Top, Let There Be Rock,and no, we aren't miming- it was recorded LIVE in one take at The Shortland Hotel, Newcastle, mid 2006 ("It's funny how many times we've been asked are we miming- it's a great compliment." ) Jarrod's voice is uncanningly Bon Scott, but equally impressive doing the Brian Johnson numbers. We are a guitar band-no fancy pedals-just that raw guitar sound that made oz-rock famous.
Record Label: Recording will start with a new lead for originals
Type of Label: None
