How do you cook-up the perfect covers band? Open a packet of your favourite funk, classic-rock and grunge; stir in a watertight rhythm section; inject two red-hot guitars; then hand the microphone over to a good-lookin' frontman with serious pipes and charisma to burn.
Sound good?
Playing it soft-and-sexy (acoustic) or hard-and-fast (electric), the Henchmen are perfect for pubs, parties or pavilions - anywhere, any time.
Meet The Men
Tony (lead singer) is living proof that enthusiasm, sex appeal and a raw rock voice can take you all the way! Like Kiedis crossed with Kravitz, Tony is a real showman who always hits the big notes and keeps the crowd entertained.
Pete (drums) is the hardest working man in showbusiness. At least, that's what he tells everybody in between naps...And when he's not belting the skins, Pete belts out killer back-up vocals.
Paul (lead guitar) is the cousin of Slash from Guns N' Roses. Actually, that's not true, but he sure can peel off a smokin' guitar solo. And how can someone so good be so modest?
Lex (bass) is the glue that every band needs: rock-solid bass rhythms anchoring the whole outfit. He's a four-string maestro with a whole lotta soul. Rumour has it he also plays keys.
Chas (rhythm guitar) is a lanky rock 'n' roll journeyman. With his Gibson Les Paul in tow, he booted it out of Melbourne and is ready to rock Adelaide...but is Adelaide ready for him?

Testimonials
Who was St Patrick anyway? Was he at the Mawson Lakes Hotel on Saturday night?
Our deck was pumping: the band really worked up a sweat and got the crowd involved. And Tony won plenty of admirers (mostly our married girlfriends...)
Carly & Stew, Hawthorndene
It was a rainy winter night in Rostrevor, but Tony and the guys warmed everybody up. A great band for a great party.
James, Rostrevor
The band did an unplugged summer set on our driveway. All the little kids were dancing and our friends loved it.
Meg, Aldgate
You guys are awesome! I reckon this time next year you'll have roadies carrying your gear!
