R4 are:
Gordon Lyon - Vocals
Darren Watson - Guitar and Vocals
Robbie Lesiuk - Bass and Vocals
Iain Buchanan - Drums
R4 formed in 2007, however all 4 musicians have been in the industry for nearly 15 years; writing and performing with several other bands.
R4 now perform regularly up and down the country, with the occasional gig south of the border and have become a huge success with their blend of classic rock and modern indie pop covers. They have built a reputation as being one of Scotland’s best rock cover bands and take on many covers that other bands would stay well clear of. Their mix of rock guitar and 3 part vocal harmonies make them a cut above the run of the mill rock band and their energy, stage presence and general banter is there for all to see.
Over the years the band have continued to increase their set list which currently contains everything from The Beatles, The Stones and The Clash to The Killers, Coldplay and Razorlight.
Recently guys now performing some more modern numbers from artists such as The View, The Enemy, The Zutons and The Foo Fighters.
There is definitely a lot more to come from R4 so watch this space!
