Band Bio

* Do you like hardcore British Rhythm and Blues?
* Remember the sheer exitement when you heard Dr Feelgood, Alex Harvey or The Pirates?
* Do you want live music to be exciting, exhilarating and exhausting?
* Feel fed up with
o The X (crement) Factor
o Painful Karaoke nights
o Boring pub singers with crap backing tapes
o Self-indulgent blues bands going through the motions
o Moody posers that just depress everyone in earshot?

If you are then join us in the revolution (re-evolution) that is The Poodles of Doom.

he Poodles of Doom is a Bristol-based pub-rock trio playing high-energy, high-fun music. We have years of experience (including professional) but retain the sense of excitement, fun and passion for real music and are dedicated to putting on a great show for the punters.

As Jon plays guitar and keyboards (but not usually at the same time) the band can switch between a guitar trio and an organ/piano trio. Material and influences come from the likes of Dr Feelgood, the Pirates, the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, Rory Gallagher and Brian Auger, but our lineup and approach to music give us a unique combination of sounds, which is great as we’re not trying to sound like anyone else! We are also currently working on original material.

We play with a combination of energy, musicality, rawness and professionalism – quite a challenge! We are dedicated to playing music that has a real impact on the audience and also getting them to join in by dancing and singing along.

We ramp the energy right up, play things in our own style and blast it out at the audience to really shake them up and get them rocking! We don’t mess about with endless fumbling around on stage, boring monologues between songs, an hour long break at the bar between sets and definitely don’t lay back and play gentle background music. We DO hit the audience with track after track of relentless, pure music power to deliver an unforgettable experience!
