Japanese rock, punk and metal power trio Electric Eel Shock play The Welly on Beverley Road.
Electric Eel Shock play The Welly on Wednesday 11 November, from 7:00pm to 11:00pm. They're a Japanese power trio — Aki Morimoto on guitar and vocals, Kazuto Maekawa on bass, and Tomoharu 'Gian' Ito on drums — and they describe their sound as a celebration of classic rock, punk and metal.
They formed in Tokyo back in the nineties, first toured the US in 1999 and made it over to Europe in early 2003, and they've been touring the world ever since. They've played in 40 countries across four continents and have appeared at almost every major rock festival in Europe: they headlined a stage at Roskilde in Denmark, played Bonnaroo behind The Black Crowes, and closed the main stage at Azkurna Rock Festival in Spain. In the States, they've played every single state except Alaska and Hawaii, performed at SXSW four times, and once played with a full orchestra at Beached Festival in Scarborough.
