“Newsham Side Club is a great venue” said Paul (keyboards and vocals). “Everyone was up to have a great night and clearly the 300 people who were there for the pool league presentations know how to party”.

“It’s also great to be asked to come back and perform at next years presentation”.

<<  Dean, the drummer in a thoughtful moment!

That was the best gig we've ever played...

BAKTRAK not only have a fantastic sound system, but provide both on stage and disco lighting to suit every venue.  They are soon to acquire a laser show too, and that’s going to be fantastic!

Our new lighting rig!

Roy has been with the band from the start.  Having done his time with such notable North East bands as French Curves, he is the eyes and ears, front of stage.

We reckon he must be feeling his age as he’s training up a protege, Dave the Dude to help out with the sound and light mixing.

We did ask him about this and he gave us a funny look and merely said:

“F-fish paste ....”

Not sure what he means by that, but I’m sure it’s deep and meaningful .......

A word from our sound man ........

BAKTRAK are constantly asked for a CD of their covers, especially their versions of “House of the Rising Sun”.  So due to popular demand the aim is to get to the studio and “lay one down” in the Autumn.
