notes
By combining solid, guitar driven rhythms with fiddle, mandolin and accordion the Dockery Boys deliver a potent, addictive brew of rock-pop and American roots music.
And if you're still undecided, this is what the music press is saying. "...a creative and vibrant fusing of rock and roots music. Never afraid to add pop immediacy to the mix, lay on the blues, Cajun or Celtic flavourings, everything they do on Moondog Man brims with a quality and professionalism that sets them apart from so many acts ...Their assured melodic delivery and ability to constantly impress marks them down as an act who can really offer the goods that would lift them into major league status. Why they're still on their own label is a mystery, when lesser talents are courted and signed by the majors. Wholeheartedly recommended. " - (Rock 'n' Reel Magazine)
"The songs are strong, frontman Mark is in fine voice and the music drives along with rather more rock than roots...This excellently produced first CD should, if there is any justice, elevate them..." - (Rob Scrase, Folkwrite Magazine)

What people are saying about the gigs... ‘With over a thousand people waiting expectantly for the Festival’s Saturday headline band, anything less than the spiraling, wonderful and wildly danceable set the Dockery Boys played would simply have died a death. They wooed the audience and "rocked & rootsed" everyone into the beautiful summer’s night.’ Darren Walter (Gloucester Dock’s Roots Festival ‘94) ‘The Dockery Boys are the most exciting rock/roots band in England...DON’T MISS THEM!’ Phil Beer (Show of Hands, the Albion Band) ‘Even before the gig, the Dockery Boy’s impressed: professional attitude, excellent publicity and easy to deal with. On the night they more than lived up to expectations, delivering a brilliant, energetic and audience-friendly show. I’ll certainly be booking them again!’ Sarah Pym (Sterts Arts Centre, Cornwall) 'Their high-octane fusion of roots and rock, with a twist of folk, proved irresistible to all, leaving the crowd begging for more long after their set had ended. Book this band - I guarantee you will not be disappointed!!' Richard Aston, Greenpeace Festival organiser What people are saying about the album, 'Moondog Man'...
