About Me


White Ace http://whiteace.bebo.com/
Richie Edwards: "We had some guys supporting us in Glasgow the other night called White Ace. They’re barely eighteen years old but they’re the most incredible players and really lovely guys. I went to have a look at them when they went on and I was totally blown away.I found their EP in my suitcase just this morning and banged it on in my computer, and it’s really f*cking good. It may be a little bit naïve in places, but give those guys a year, or a bit of time with someone who can shape them a little bit, and they’ll be knock-outs." Manager of Pharaohs Club after a gig there in July 2006 “Absolutely Breathtaking!........is how I'd describe White Ace's performance with us on the 28th of July. These guys are HOT, HOT, HOT! They commanded the stage and the attention of the audience with the greatest of ease.Their material is just pure class - way beyond their years. Songs like "I Feel Fine" and "Tall Blonde Girl" have it ALL as indeed do the band, not a weakness amongst them. They kept things tight and displayed excellent timing throughout. The vocals just blended into each song in such a way that at times it was very difficult to believe that you weren't watching and listening to a top notch, established band.Very rarely have I been so impressed! My only advice to them is to keep doing what you're doing and don't just jump in when you get offers because I can see you getting lots once you've had sufficient exposure - so get out there and get as much as you can!Well Done, Well Done indeed!” You should create your own MySpace Layouts like me by using nUCLEArcENTURy .COM's MySpace Profile Editor !

Band Members:Craig McCabe - Lead Vocals/GuitarsThe youngest member of White Ace, Craig has a great stage presence and always puts 100% into his live performance. His skills on guitar have steadily developed into one of the finest on the unsigned scene. Definitely no shoe-gazing here....... his charisma must be seen.Chris McCabe - Lead Guitars/Backing Vocals Chris has various styles of playing guitar which can be heard in White Ace songs. From slide to tapping his ability is evident, all coming from six years of self teaching. His inspirations include Jimmy Page and Stevie Ray Vaughan to name but a few. His song writing has flourished over the years and his partnership with his brother is a great combination resulting in the production of some fine tracks.Gerry Loughrey- Bass Guitars/Backing Vocals.Between rehearsing, gigging, clubbing, playing football and generally having a good time, Gerard still finds time to study Sports Science at Glasgow Uni. He is laid back on stage and lets the other half of the rhythm section go sticks blazing during the performance and also allows the McCabes guitar melodies and vocals to shine through.Dave McCluskey- Drums/Percussion.Dave started playing drum at the age of 11 . He is currently studying jazz & funk drumming and is at James Watt College in Greenock studying Sound Production. His enthusiasm is clear for all to see during gigs as is his perfect timing and general brilliance. Phenomenal ability!
Influences: AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, Thin Lizzy/Gary Moore, Thunder,The Black Crowes,Guns n Roses, Bon Jovi,Free,Deep Purple, along those lines
Sounds Like: We have many Rock/Blues influences , However we aim to keep our sound as original as possible.
Type of Label: None
