Describe your sound in one sentence
Big original sound on the very edge of blues rock.
What is your "mission”?
To think outside the box and deliver solid original material. All in all to be the best we can be.
If the act was an animal or bird, which would it be?
None, they cannot play instruments!!
What other people say
"For a three piece band VATA rocked, and the guitarist Virgil certainly knows his way around the fretboard. Jack and Gabriel are right up there with him, and they are the perfect springboard for Virgil to let loose. Anyone who gets Heep out of the dressing room must have something! I wish them all the luck in the world!"
Mick Box, Uriah Heep
