"You will adore this band!" - Shell Zenner, XS Manchester/Amazing Radio.
The Maddocks comprise of old school friends George Edwards on vocals & lead guitar, Siobhán Lally on bass, Ed Gibbins on drums and Alex Tollerfield on rhythm guitar. Since their formation in early 2022, the band haven't stopped turning heads with their high-energy, post-punk infused sound, having sold-out multiple headline shows, most notably at Manchester's iconic Deaf Institute in February 2024.
Already making a name for themselves, The Maddocks have earnt a nod of approval from Radio X's John Kennedy, and have boasted playlist slots on XS Manchester and Amazing Radio. The band also caught the eye of indie legend Tim Burgess, which subsequently landed them spots on the bill at Kendal Calling & Lakefest.
All born in the same Stockport hospital at the turn of the millennium, the band have an intrinsic love for their town and the people in it. After a home-coming show at AMP, The Maddocks are ready to dive into a new era, kickstarted by the release of their upcoming single, "Benny Says", scheduled for November 2023, and the announcement of their biggest headline yet at Manchester Academy 3 in March next year. Are you ready to step into The Mind Palace?

FLEETWOOD BAC were the world’s first and are regarded as the UK’s most authentic Fleetwood Mac Tribute show, raved about by Peter Green’s biographer, and were the first Fleetwood Mac tribute band to fully replicate the classic Stevie, Lindsey, Christine, John & Mick ‘Rumours’ line-up.
Over the many years Fleetwood Bac have been together the band has received rave reviews from ‘The Stage’ newspaper, the U.K.s leading Fleetwood Mac fansites, the official Stevie Nicks website; and from ecstatic audiences wherever the band played, wowing audiences as far afield as Dubai, St. Tropez, the Cayman Islands and Monte Carlo, and twice selling out the world-famous Minack Theatre in Cornwall.
Fleetwood Bac has also been rated by The Times newspaper as one of the U.K.’s top 5 tributes, alongside The Bootleg Beatles, Bjorn Again and the Counterfeit Stones. Fans have included original Mac bassist and biographer Bob Brunning, who joined the band several times on stage, and Peter Green’s official biographer Martin Celmins.
The sound, the look, the mystical atmosphere and on-stage chemistry are all portrayed with passion and energy, the band have built up an excellent reputation amongst Mac fans through numerous tours, festival appearances, corporate events and TV and radio slots all over the U.K. and Europe.
The Fleetwood Bac show focuses on the ‘Rumours’ era of the band (still the 5th biggest-selling album of all time). It also features several songs from the Peter Green days, plus some of Stevie’s biggest solo hits, in either a theatrical 2-hour show, including costume changes and an acoustic section, or a one-hour Greatest Hits Show, specially tailored for corporate events.
