FILTHY LUCRE

NEVER MIND THE TRIBUTE GIVE IT SOME BOLLOCKS!

About Me

FILTHY LUCRE are the most authentic sounding Sex Pistols Tribute band right now in the UK. Formed in May 2004 the band features the talents of four feisty London, Nottingham and Peterborough musicians united in their love of seventies Punk and The Pistols, and well versed in the art of creating an accurate sounding and visually exciting live performance that has already garnered them a sizable following and mailing list.
Vocalist Sean Dunleavy even looks like Johnny Rotten, and has all the wardrobe, front and invective to really be Lydon, and armed to the teeth With some choice inter song banter, he's a real charmer- hecklers? don't even fucking try it!
Bassist Angus is a rambunctious hybrid of Glen Matlock and Sid Vicious possessing the formers musicality but with Sid's volatile stage persona he creates one half of the colourful and pugnacious rhythm section alongside Steve Farmer's relentless and powerfully adamant drumming.
Every riff, lick and pick-slide has been nailed with meticulous accuracy by guitarist Chukka- using the same white trademark Les Paul and amp as Steve Jones.
FILTHY LUCRE have systematically learned all 31 Sex Pistols songs- every vocal inflection, drum fill and guitar dynamic is there, blending together the rawness of a Pistols live performance along with the sound of the original studio recordings, making FILTHY LUCRE a tight and ferocious live band.
We are able therefore to perform 2x45 minute sets or 60 minutes straight through with lashings of encores!
