Rock the rock!

It started as a birthday party. A Maltese guitarist brought up as a Brit, coming home and having fun.

The plan was, to have a concert where diversity was key, hence many musicians. The theme is most definitely ROCK, but in its many forms. From Old School to Prog Metal, with everything in between. So, with the unstinting support of Ian Zerafa, and Jodi (of the band Mojo) a motley crew of musicians was assembled, and the gig, although mostly unrehearsed, was a roaring success. From Led Zeppelin to Dream Theater, it was covered.

So, following the success and fun of those initial gigs the organisers have decided to make this at least an annual event, where some of the country's finest rock talents merge together with a core band.

Following the original eight musicians, there are now 18 taking part. The show will be fully rehearsed, and one should be prepared for a huge set encompassing nearly every genre in Rock/Metal.

Having so many subdivisions together on one stage has probably never really been done here before, but the fragmentation of Rock has gone on long enough. It's time we brought it all together. ReUnited. Just for you. 

The event is happening on Friday 19 July at Fra Ben, Qawra. Tickets are at €5 at the door. Follow the FB page: www.facebook.com/events/264755150332315/?fref=ts
