(Lead Vox, Rhythm Guitar, Harmonica)

Throughout John’s childhood, he was always surrounded by the great music his parents would play. Listening in awe at the the vocal brilliance of Joe Cocker, Steve Marriott, Rod Stewart or Elvis Presley to name but a few. As he grew older, having been inspired by his heroes, he added some of his own spice and what came out was the vocal powerhouse you see today. The range of this man’s voice is truly outstanding and not something you hear in any other cover band. Also playing rhythm guitar, John is known to break out his Harmonica when required.

Lead guitarist, sound engineer, lighting tech, all round nice guy – Matt’s roles in the band are endless. Wielding his axe from a young age and striving to play like his idols, playing covers is his natural musical habitat. With a background in music technology, getting onto the other side of the mixing desk and joining McVicar has allowed Matt to justify his obsession with buying guitars and gear along with having a good old rock out! Be sure to check out his home made double neck guitar “Pix” when he’s not soloing in your face on one of his Les Paul’s.

McVicar’s newbie, Ed joined the band officially in early 2018 after depping a few gigs and getting a taste for the high life! An absolute flurry of arms and legs when on stage, Ed’s presence behind the kit is second to none. Gigging since he was 13, Ed has played some iconic venues across the country and puts all his experience into playing with McVicar. Despite us demanding he changed his name to avoid any confusion, we have found that two Ed’s definitely are better than one!

Ed started playing guitar at the age of 10 and it wasn’t until the age of 19 when he started a course at West Herts Music college in Watford, he found the right instrument – the bass! Playing in originals and covers bands since the age of 13, Ed had thought he’d played most songs on the covers circuit – until he joined McVicar in late 2015 and discovered the art of the rock mash-up. Ed has played gigs at venues from America to Australia but now doesn’t like to venture too far away from Ed’s right foot! As one half of the McVicar rhythm section, Ed can be found pulling all sorts of bass faces to the funkier side of the set.
