Thunder

Thunder are a hard rocking band roaring out from London, enjoying over twenty years of success. Whilst they have seen lineup changes over the years, they have still maintained their powerful, heavy sound. They have also laid down their instruments on a couple of occasions, but have returned, unable to stay away from the joy of playing their unfettered, riotous music that has an arena-filling sound. Calling Festival in London, 2014, was the perfect setting for Thunder to again re-establish their rock credentials, proving to doubters that they can still rock harder than most. Despite the time spent apart and with the members now well into their 50s, the band proved they still had plenty of energy to give a riveting performance. "Love Walked In" was a powerful, heavy ballad with a strong vocal performance. "Higher Ground" was a romping track that built up into a crunchy, bluesy monster that inspired a mass clap-along by the audience. They may be grey but they still have talent and virility with aplomb, with the band being as tight as ever, locking in to the heavy grooves with a real sense of connection between the members. For hard-rocking, you should look no further than Thunder to lay down the law.
