OVERLOAD

About Me


Based in Melbourne, OVERLOAD is a full throttle Blues / Classic Rock Power Trio, formed by Guitarist & Singer Brad Cook in Mid 2008.
The Line up is completed with the Power House, Rock Solid Rhythm section of Bassist Jack Coetsee and Drummer Nick Koutsioulis.
Since their first successful show in July 2008, OVERLOAD has continued to make a huge impact on the Local Blues & Classic Rock scene. Their live shows are energetic, dynamic & They ROCK!!!
Each one of these crazy cats has spent many years performing in the live music scene throughout Australia, and together, they explode to push the Blues into OVERLOAD.
Seeing this band live is an experience you won’t forget. They come to life on stage, and they live for the Blues !!!
