With Sean “Keys” Grieve on keyboards, Boogie Patrol combine jaw-dropping guitar, keys & harmonica solos with a rhythm section that you can’t help but move ‘n’ groove to. These boys stay true to their name and take letting loose to a whole new level.

On bass is Nigel “The Duke” Gale, who has played with a wide range of styles and genres which provided him with the talent to adapt to Boogie Patrol’s spontaneous live show.
