About Alchemy......


Mix four well established, semi-professional musicians and add music. The result could best be described as Alchemy!

A large reportoire of songs from the '50s till now, including rock, blues, country, pop and even a bit of strict tempo makes this a hugely versatile band. With experience in many venues including pubs, clubs, weddings and functions, Alchemy have the right mix of music to make your event a success.

Line-up

Pat Lemon is one of the most versatile drummers around. With a feel for a variety of different genres from rock right through to strict tempo, Pat lays down a really solid backline. Former bands include.....

Jools ***** plays her Warwick bass and sings with conviction, complimenting Pat's solid rhythm and adding another level of harmony. Her rendition of 'All or Nothing' amply demonstrates her depth and ability. Former bands include.....

Andy Upshall has been singing and strumming since God was in short trousers. His distinctive vocal style forms the mainstay of the band. Andy frequently uses 4 or 5 guitars during a gig to individualise the sound of each song he bashes out, but they all sound the same to us! Also known as 'Mick Shagger', his light hearted Stones caberet hits the spot.

Hailed as the best guitarist in his street, John Murray is known for his ability to bend bum notes until they fit, lending an emotional overtone to his musical interpretation. Indeed, people are often seen crying openly after his noteable performances. With almost as much ability as ego, john is one of the biggest plank spankers you're likely to see round here.
