What makes a great Rock'n'roll band?
Songs from the heart that can take on the world & move people?
Electrifying live shows that leave crowds always wanting more?
A sense of musical individuality & personal style that sets them apart from all the other bands out there?
A passionate belief in the roots & traditions of rock & roll music combined with a burning desire to make contemporary records that will stand alongside the best?
Power, melody, attitude, anthems?
- The Godfathers have all these attributes in spades.
