Chameleon is a five piece band which plays its own material as well as putting its own twist on established classics from a range of great artists. Singer Jenni's warm soulful voice together with versatile guitarists Ben and Sam create an enticing funk rock feel that is driven by the strong rhythm section of Theo (Drums) and Isaac (Bass). The band has developed its own style, influenced by the likes of Herbie Hancock, Oli Brown, Jimi Hendrix and The Raconteurs.
Chameleon is made up of friends (aged between 12 and 15) and has been gigging locally for a couple of years, playing at The Stag Theatre in Sevenoaks, Sevenoaks Festival, Sevenoaks Jubilee Celebrations and Lullingstone Country Park. The band has also performed at the HMV Institute in Birmingham and Rich Mix in London.
They recorded their first CD (Blackout) a year ago and will shortly be returning to the studio to record more of their own material.
David began songwriting in 2001 on a trip around the world, with a 6-chord songbook and cheap guitar as his tools and only companions. Alas, the boybands were dead and gone, so he turned instead to the likes of Paul Simon, Bob Dylan and The Beatles to show him the way. In the years since, David has played gigs all over the South-East, establishing himself as a regular at the Grey Lady with his unique blend of acoustic roots, blues and folk music. He released his debut album ‘Bonfire Music’ in 2013, his EP ‘Be Back Soon’ in 2014, and his homemade album ‘Night Moves’ in 2015. You can download all his music online for free!
