RECULVER - ProfilesArchive

About Me

Reculver are a heavy rock and roll band from the wilds of southern Kent. Formed in 2003 by cousins Luke and Simon Purdie with rhythm section Mr. Jarrett and Jimi August. Musicians drawn together through a common hard rock heritage coupled with an ethic of musical freedom. The Reculver sound is an articulate blend of power and melody with a heart of blues and hooks a mile wide. The bands core is the upshot of a life long friendship between cousins Luke and Simon, enhanced by long term collaboration with drummer Jarrett. Playing together in various groups for several years they have honed their skills and sound into a unique identity. Incredibly tight, uncompromisingly hard, soulful music. All this time the trio had been searching for the missing link, and they found it in more ways than one, in the form of bass monster Jimi August. Low end secure, Reculver was born. A blend of contemporary tastes, married with unashamedly retro sensibilities.
