The Story so far,

Fronting this Hard Rockin Trio is long time front man and Founding Member Pete Lyth, delivering his own mix of powerful Rhythm/Lead guitar accompanying a powerful vocal delivery as lead vocalist of this Hard Rockin Ted Trio.

One half of the Big Backbeat of the Rhythm Aces is crafted by Chevy Coles a life long Ted and Rocker dedicated to the Rock & Roll sound,

Chevy joined the band almost 3 years ago and has worked tirelessly to develop his understanding of what the Rhythm Aces sound is and has introduced his own way of delivering it with hard hitting but sympathetic understanding and approach to the music, a solid performer and front man in his own right.

The other half of the Rhythm Aces Big Backbeat comes from the hands and heart of Luke Twyford a very a powerful yet sympathetic percussionist with an explosive style!

A young man with a Rock & Roll lineage, Luke grew up to the Tales of the Ted lifestyle as imparted by his Grandfather a Ted back in the day who played the music for him and spoke of much of the history to him,

In the short time Luke has been with the Rhythm Aces he has worked tirelessly to develop his understanding and style to embellish and compliment the true style and spirit of the band, its music and performances, an accomplished and highly skilled young musician and respected member of the band.

The Culprits (Belfast)

The Culprits were formed in 1985..one of Belfasts first ‘neo rockabilly’ bands.interest in the band was reignited after a few early demo tracks were released on the ‘birth of Irish psychobilly’ compilation by Spanish label Wreckin bones.this was quickly followed by a six track e.p on the same label.

Fronted up by two of the original members,bassist Pete Lavery and guitarist Neilly Madden,they bring the best of authentic rockabilly…but with their own twist.
