Overview
Local Favourites ROADSIDE return to The Hippo following their successful return to the Plymouth Music scene.
Roadside
Before Roadside reformed, Sam, Steve, Duncan, Colin and Jamie, used to jam in Duncans garage or Colins lock up, just chillin out, deciding where they wanted to take the band, or how far the band would go. The eventual decision was to live the dream and take everyday as it comes! 10 years ago, Duncan, Steve, Colin and Jamie formed the band and attracted a large local audience. Big things were made of what they were doing and what they could achieve! Despite all the hype and all there efforts Roadside were never signed and eventually had to call it a day due to work commitments!!! 10 years on Roadside have reformed! With the fresh start they have added a new member, Sam Davey. They have written new material and are buzzing with the prospect of what the future might bring. Roadside are workin hard to win over the local scene again. At the same time they are lovin being back involved in music, the enjoyment music brings time and time again inspires them to keep writing new songs and playing live.
