The Rockerati - 21st Century Rock & Roll

"Original, over-driven rockers totally hit the spot"
Vive Le Rock

"Full-on, fearsome rock 'n' roll, the next great band fans of Rockpile and Creedence have been crying out for"
Uncut's Terry Staunton

"Something new and urgent and rocking and fun, like a stone skipping across the decades"
Paul Cavalconte WFUV

"You've seen that pyramid on your money with the eye on it? That's the symbol of the Illuminati I'm told. And that pyramid, it was made from Rockerati."
Bill Kelly WFMU

"A very cool British band"
Todd-o-phonic Todd WFMU

"Sometimes amidst all the genres and descriptions it's just rock and roll. Meet The Rockerati, the sounds are huge! If you've ever gotten a head rush from listening to Nick Lowe's "Pure Pop For Now People" or Rockpile's "Seconds of Pleasure" you'll be salivating for more."

"Rock and roll never goes out of style. Somewhere in the UK, the Rockerati are keeping faith with primal rock and roll. They sound like Rockpile and that band featured Nick Lowe and Dave Edmunds, so not a shabby comparison."

"Rather pleasant"
Francis Rossi of Status Quo

"Sounds more like Rockpile than Rockpile"
Poster on Steve Hoffman Forum

The rock'n'roll train may have left the mainline station 50 or 60 years ago, but it's still roaming around the rails at the edges of town if you know where to look...

As Keith Richards probably once said

"The rock is nothing without the roll"
