Stevie Doherty, Tim Haigh, Ben Stiff and Bob Stiff are the brawn behind one of Suffolks' most popular rock covers bands for a number of years, The Racketeers. With the set becoming more than a little 'Floyd' heavy and with all the guys being huge Floyd fans, it was time to move away from the Racketeers and concentrate on putting together a 'Floyd' show and so 'A Saucerful of Floyd' was born! The band’s sell-out debut at Suffolk’s 'The Riverside Club' in Nov 2007 was followed up by performances at QJam and Kesgrave Festival. The band’s members have an illustrious and diverse history in the music business - in 1993 Stevie toured as front man of the re-formed Sensational Alex Harvey Band and recorded the 'Live in Glasgow '93' album. With the band gaining recognition, the rising talent of saxophonist Jane Elston has enhanced the line-up - Jane is a graduate of the Centre for Music & Performing Arts who has previously been seen on Swinburne Hall’s stage with popular local band The Slicknotes. High quality musicians, a full scale production with lighting and the music of legends guarantees this show is not to be missed.
“For more then two hours the group kept the audience spellbound… the whole group's love of and respect for the music shone through like a crazy diamond”
BBC Radio Suffolk’s Stephen Foster, in a review in Grapevine Magazine
