Viva High Rollers

About Me

Viva High Rollers are five rock 'n' roll outlaws from Rotherham and Sheffield whose sole aim is to bring their unique blend of rock 'n' roll, primeval chaos, excitement and mayhem to as many stages in the country as possible. Viva High Rollers live gigs are high octane, half crazed, booze fuelled parties. WARNING! This is not a band to watch on a family night out. Viva High Rollers believe in bringing an element of danger and chaos to their shows.
Influenced by the rock 'n' roll greats of old (Little Richard, Elvis, The Stones) combined with the high powered riffs of newer bands such as QOTSA, The Datsuns, The Hives, and mixed together with an unbridled passion for music, showmanship, and just a hint of LSD, the results are frequently electrifying. This could just about be the embodiment of rock 'n' roll. So come and lose your mind with Viva High Rollers!
And just one more thing... If you're afraid of fire, don't go too near the stage...
