Local Heroes
South East London
Musicians who play the local pub and club scene are the lifeblood of live music. Those looking to live their dreams, write their songs, and play their instruments do so for little gain, much pain but much love too. This page is here to give these local heroes a bit of the spotlight. Go out and see these heroes and help keep them and the local music scene alive.
STONE BLIND - The explosive Rock band from the South East. Playing their own awesome material and the best Rock tracks from the biggest acts throughout history.
​
What are Stone Blind? A group of like minded musicians who just want one thing… To play great music! Starting at a local jam night in south London, singer Jamie Bull and guitarist Dan Murphy decided it was time to take their love of rock ‘n’ roll from the once a week open mic night on the stage as a sweat dripping, high octane rock band. With the help of Dan’s brother Matt and drummer from Jamie’s previous band the line up was complete.
Stone Blind are now playing bars and clubs, and anywhere that will let them play (loudly) all over London. With a classic set that includes stunning original material and massive rock classic from all eras Stone Blind will literally bring the roof down at any venue they play at.

Jamie And The Jets
I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind but yeah, I’m not really Elton John. But I do love his music and I love playing it… so much in fact that when people kept telling me I sounded too much like Elton John, I thought well… Lets do this properly and formed a tribute band to salute the Rocket Man himself. Backed by some truly great musicians I present to you Jamie & The Jets.
We’re playing all the biggest hits, and a few of the lesser known ones, totally live (we don’t mime) There’s sparkly costumes, flashing lights, lots of glasses (and even real hair).
Get ready for the best (and youngest) tribute to Elton John you’ll ever see!.

The Dirty Perks
​
The Dirty Perks are a 4-piece originals rock band from Kent. After forming in 2012, they started out as a covers band before breaking out into the original music scene. The music is rock and roll with a punky edge. There's a powerful mix of harmonious vocals, excellent instrumentation, fiery energy, and some wild guitar solos.
Within six months of playing together the Dirty Perks were up against 800 other bands and came in the top three of chef Jamie Oliver's Summer Jam competition, with their song 'Oh Oh Oh'. The Perks filmed a music video and played Jamie's 'Big Feastival'. Since then they have supported BabyShambles at their after show party and played venues around the country.
