Sydney Rock'n'Roll Band The Vauxhalls was formed with four of the most experienced musicians in Australia, with members coming from bands like Ol’ 55, On the Prowl, Frogs on Toast and Tessa and the Twist Tops. The band features Mark Lord (saxophone and vocals), Neil Cheverton (guitar and vocals), Mick Ellis (drums and vocals) and Leon Delander (bass and vocals). Each member individually covers a wide range of rock and roll standards while enhancing the harmony and backing vocals that are synonymous with the era of fifties and sixties rock & roll.
The Vauxhall’s as a name was picked from the iconic car company “Vauxhall” which is identified by most Australians as a car from the 1950’s and 1960’s. The mention of the name invokes memories of our younger years when dancing to Rock & Roll and taking the Vauxhall to the drive in was all the go.
These musicians have collectively played in Australia’s biggest and best venues; everywhere from stadiums and festivals to cruises and clubs, rocking the bobby-socks off ravers of all ages.
