KEITH HUBBARD - Lead Guitar & Vocals

Keith began his career in various Merseyside bands during the mid 60s, before becoming a member of the original cast of the rock musical HAIR.

After 15 months of touring, Keith left the show to pursue his long held ambition of performing with his own rock band.

Before joining the chart topping group CHICORY TIP Keith formed CALIBAN, who were regulars at Liverpool's legendary CAVERN CLUB and played at the club's very last night.

After leaving CHICORY TIP he performed with a variety of bands until, in 1983, he formed SHOOTER, now recognised as one of the best 60s revival bands touring today.

One of the major contributors to the guitar sounds of the 60s was the FENDER STRATOCASTER. Keith, by adapting his own personal vocal and guitar style, with his faithful "STRAT", gives SHOOTER the strident sounds that were the essence of the era.

MIKE RIMMER - Bass Guitar & Vocals

Like Keith, Mike started his music career in the early 1960s, playing rhythm guitar in several local bands throughout the golden age of Mersey Beat. By the late 1960s Mike had graduated to bass guitar.

During the early 1970s he joined Folk/Blues duo, ‘Jim and Raphael’, and appeared on Radio One’s Mike Raven’s Blues Show, the session was recorded at the BBC’s legendary Maida Vale Studios.

Though the 1970s, and on into the 1990s Mike continued to expand his talents by experimenting with various styles of music from Cabaret and Folk Rock to Country Music and Traditional Jazz.

More recently Mike has returned to his roots by teaming-up with Keith and Jeff to provide SHOOTER with the bass rhythms and strong harmonies required for performing songs from the 1950s and 60s.

 


 

JEFF WALKER - Drums

In 1982, aged just 13 years, Jeff started his drumming career in local gospel groups.

Throughout the 1980s Jeff performed with various indie bands. In 1990 he recorded extensively as a member of "Wild Honey", making many appearances on national T.V and Radio.

After "Wild Honey" Jeff toured with the ever popular “Max Bacon Band” and during the late 1990s he joined the 80s cover band "Decade".

More recently Jeff has drummed for various soul bands, most notably, “Soultrade” supporting and backing big name acts including the world famous “Platters”.

Now with SHOOTER, Jeff's vast experience provides the driving rhythms that are required for performing the sounds of Pop Music's greatest era.
