About Me


CHECK OUT OUR VIDEO FOR 'THE SAINTS AND SINNERS BLUES'!
Rockburn are a 4-piece rock band from Bellshill, Scotland. Formed in August 2005 Rockburn have been writing and playing together for over 2 years.
The line up includes:
Stephen Baxter – Vocals
Gary Dudgeon – Guitar
Martin "Jimi" Henry – Bass
Christo Lambrou – Drums
The band began gigging in January 2006 and has built up a dedicated fan base which has grown large enough to allow them to play some of the biggest venues in Glasgow such as Glasgow’s Barrowlands and ABC where they supported signed bands.
Rockburn’s music can be described as Classic Rock with a Blues influence although they do not restrict themselves when it comes to writing. The songs remain catchy and memorable.
The local press have shown their support for the band and continue to follow Rockburn’s progress.
Rockburn are continuing to play regularly to gain further support and promote the band across the UK.
The band has recently recorded tracks at The Foundry Music Lab to complete an industry standard demo which they have been selling to raise funds for a UK tour planned summer 2008.
Rockburn are constantly working to progress the band to new heights and their dedication and talent will ensure they reach their goals for the future.
''Classic Rock n' Roll, but with a 21st century twist.
These boys from Bellshill are definitely going places... Its old school rock and roll here folks, with a mix of blues and unrestricted writing. These guys don’t hold back in their lyrics. Basically they are catchy, captivating and blooming good fun, a breath of fresh air. They definitely have potential. Their local papers support them and the turn out for their gig was pretty impressive. Everyone was dancing towards the end of their set. They are relentlessly working towards higher plateaus and will most definitely get there if they keep this kind of performance up.''

“70’s influenced Rockburn work hard, putting out amazing tunes again and again. But with bags full of energy and catchy melodies to boot, Rockburn are firmly in the 21st century and here to stay!''
- Dicelines Promotions & Management
"Immensly talanted Rockburn combine blues and rock resulting in a host of sassy, catchy and utterly fabulous tuneage which is totally infectious. This band are oozing potential so get to their profile now to hear this mega talanted 4-piece for yourself"!
