 QEDG was delighted to accept an invitation to co-manage ELP alongside  long term manager Stewart Young. This culminated in the band's return to  London for a 40th anniversary headline slot at the inaugural High  Voltage Festival in 2010. Considered by many to be one of rock’s  original first super-groups, Emerson Lake & Palmer formed in England  in 1970 consisting of Keith Emerson (keyboards), Greg Lake (bass  guitar, vocals, guitar) and Carl Palmer (drums, percussion). The band  created a brand new world of music, combining classical and symphonic  rock fused with beautiful vocals. Their penchant for appropriating  themes from classical music and the group’s more nuanced, textured  approach to symphonic arrangements set ELP apart from their more  bombastic guitar-based contemporaries of the time. Along with Yes, King  Crimson, Genesis, and Rush, Emerson Lake and Palmer ushered in the Prog  era and as one of the most commercially successful rock bands of the  1970’s having sold over 40 million albums. 

 With their unique brand of progressive rock, Focus manifested themselves  at the start of the '70s as the most successful and appreciated of all  the Dutch pop-rock exports. Fronted by founding member Thijs Van Leer,  and best known for their hits “Hocus Pocus”, “House of The King” and  “Sylvia”, as well as critically acclaimed albums 'Moving Waves', 'Focus  3' and 'Hamburger Concerto', the iconic Dutch music masters are back  with their tenth album. After a comeback in the early 2000's, which  resulted in the well-received albums 'Focus 8' and 'Focus 9', the band  regrouped with a fantastic new line-up. Along with Thijs van Leer on  vocals, flute and keyboards, back on the drums is famed Focus drummer  Pierre van der Linden, who joined the group on their second album  'Moving Waves' in 1972. Bassist Udo Pannekeet, who comes from a  well-acclaimed Dutch musical family and guitarist Menno Gootjes, who  participated in Focus at an earlier stage, complete the band's current  line-up. 

  QEDG was honoured to co-manage Greg from 2008 until his death in  December 2016, after which all enquiries should be forwarded to Stewart  Young.  

Inglorious are five  young men with a mutual love and respect of the classics of Hard Rock  music, big guitar riffs, and soulful vocals.  Their influences stem from  iconic rock and roll shrine of Rock albums from the 1970s – many years  before the band members were born.  The  same albums that have inspired generations of musicians and performers  are noticeably evident when you listen to the Inglorious debut album.   This is the music they were born to play together - inspired by bands in  the classic rock genre as diverse as Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin,  Whitesnake, Bad Company, Aerosmith, the Rolling Stones, to name a few.  Formed  in February 2014, the band is fronted by Nathan James, who made a name  for himself having sung for the multi-platinum selling Trans-Siberian  Orchestra, and Scorpions guitar legend Uli Jon Roth.  Nathan was looking  for like-minded musicians that desired to make incredible rock music in  a very honest fashion.   Inglorious  is composed of the inimitable frontman Nathan James, guitarist Danny  Dela Cruz who partners Dan Stevens in an Inglorious dual axe attack, renowned Brazilian bassist Vinnie Colla, and drummer Phil Beaver (who was once  signed to Mick Fleetwood’s label while still at school) A line-up that heralds a brand new era for the rising British stars. 

 Hailed as a keyboard legend, Keith Emerson has been one of the most  important figures to emerge from the thriving UK rock scene of the  1960's and 70's. He is known as one of the most prominent leaders in the  progressive rock movement, fusing rock 'n' roll with a myriad of  musical styles, such as classical, jazz and world music. A modern wizard  of electronic and acoustic keyboards, most notably the organ and  synthesizer, he has set a standard by which others multiply. With both  "The Nice" and "Emerson, Lake & Palmer," Emerson has written and  recorded some of rock's most adventurous music and brought it to the  masses with unmatched virtuosity and skillful showmanship. .

      With millions of album sales and concert attendances worldwide,  Wishbone Ash’s heritage as one of the most enduring and best loved  British rock acts is assured. Over four decades later, the music of  Wishbone Ash continues to delight audiences worldwide. Classic album  releases such as Argus, Pilgrimage, There’s the Rub, New England and  Live Dates defined the Wishbone Ash sound and have touched the hearts of  several generations of music fans. As lead vocalist and key creative  force, founding original member Martin Turner was central to the  critical and commercial success of Wishbone Ash’s most revered albums.  Martin Turner continues to perform the band’s best loved works with his  current line-up. Martin Turner plays Wishbone Ash features guitarists  Danny Willson and Misha Nikolic, and drummer Tim Brown and remains  faithful to the original Wishbone Ash blueprint.  Other ex Wishbone Ash  members, Ted Turner (www.tedturnerguitar.com), Steve Upton and Laurie  Wisefield (www.lauriewisefield.com) also represented.  

Nathan  James started singing at the age of 10.  Aged 20, he toured with  American rock show Route 66 and fronted the show with Clive Jackson of  Dr and the Medics fame.   His influences are diverse from Glenn Hughes,  David Coverdale and Axl Rose, to, Michael Bolton and Freddie Mercury to  name but a few.

In  2012 Nathan gained a place on the live finals of Andrew Lloyd Webber's  search for Jesus Christ Superstar.  Nathan was described as "the shows  most memorable performance".  Scouted by the Trans Siberian Orchestra he  was flown to the USA to audition and revealed that he would be going to  America to join the band for their Arena tour.

Nathan  is without doubt one of the best rock vocalists ever to come out of the  UK and is well on his way to stardom.   Inglorious will be the vehicle  to propel, not only Nathan, but the rest of the band into the hearts of  the nation and the world.

 Six of the UK's most highly-esteemed  and experienced rock musicians  have joined forces to create Snakecharmer.  Original Whintesnake members  Micky Moody and Neil Murray have teamed up with Laurie Wisefield  (Wishbone Ash), Harry James (Thunder, Magnum), Adam Wakeman (Ozzy  Osborne) and Chris Ousey (Heartland) to bring you classic twin-guitar  based rock as it should be played.  Playing classic rock songs that they  helped create, such as Whitesnake's Here I go Again, Fool For Your  Loving, Don't Break My Heart Again, Ready An' Willing an Ain't No Love  In The Heart Of The City, together with great tracks from their new  album, Snakecharmer is the genuine article.  Simon McBride has replaced  Micky Moody, recording the second Snakecharmer album released May 2017
