MADDEN

The Northern Irish rockers MADDEN have only been around for a year they consist of the two brothers, guitarist and vocalist Chris Madden and bass player Mikki Madden.

MADDEN have been described as  Whiskey rock, old 70's supergroup feel a la alice copper and old school rock n roll.

All of our songs are recorded using home recording equipment, it is pretty limited but if the music is good it will show no matter what, gear wise for GTRS we use a tokai les paul and a westfield les paul "rockin ruby" for drop d tunning and  a Marshall AVT 50 half stack, for bass the setup up includes a epiphone thunderbird and a charvette p-bass for drop d tunning through a galligan and kruger backline 250 half stack.  Drum beats are created using drum machines and other precusssion instruments,  effects include dunlop wah, boss chorus and micro amp.
