Four musicians were inspired by the best of the 70s to create an explosive deadly Rock'n roll mixture.
At the beginning of 2011, Vince, a self-taught canibal bassist, well-known by the inhabitants of Belfort ten years before in the band 5 colors (a funk and soul band) met the perfectionist guitarist Keutch thanks to "Chuck", a friend they had in common. Tony, the drummer, joined them a few months later and brought the experienced rythmic that keutch was hoping for.
After Chuck had left the band in October 2011, (still remaining a good friend of the band), the young guitarist Dart joined the Band, adding one last 70s rock style with his powerful voice perfectly sticking to the band's music. But the guys were still looking for a name. The four marvericks choosed the name 58 shots because the number 58 is a reference to the beginning of the new era bringing them to one direction: Rock'n roll !
58 was the number they had to remember whatever the reference may be (It may refer to the number of shooters John Bonham drunk before he died or to the start of Chuck Berry, Bill Haley or Elvis Presley's fame, or even to the weight of one of their girlfriend).
In less than a year, Dart, Keutch, Vince and Tony's good state of mind managed to create an alchimy which is surprising and which sounds Classic Rock. It allowed them to play in the most famous places of the east part of France and its frontiers.
Since Mars 2012, they have played thirty gigs, from the smallest bar to the biggest Venue (L'Axonne de Montbéliard) and to festivals. Continuing the musical quest on a rhythmic tempo, 58 shots doesn't have mercy wherever they play. It is an avalanch of overdriven guitars supported by a combination of bass guitars and drums that no bullets can stop.
