The Red Hot Chilli Yessirs is a Manx cover band of one of the world’s most famous groups - the Red Hot Chilli Peppers. The Yessirs are currently taking the island by storm, recently performing at the Bushy’s TT Village for the very first time as well as performing regularly at Noa Bakehouse and Jaks Bar and Steakhouse. Here, Matt Parkes, Niall McCabe-O’Kelly, Jordan Kirk and George Quayle pick their top 10 favourite bands and solo artists.
1. RED HOT CHILLI PEPPERS (OF COURSE) Iggy Pop play Manx band's new single on BBC 6 Music - complete with swearing Isle of Man TT 2024: 37 amazing photos capture the best moments of Bushy's Village Port Erin gearing up for fourth annual Festival of Brass Full list of gigs, karaokes and discos in the Isle of Man for the week ahead We couldn’t really miss these guys off our list - without them, the Yessirs wouldn’t exist! What we love about the RHCP is how all of the members bring their own unique style to the band. The blend of Flea’s melodic bass lines, Smith’s funky drum grooves, and Frusciante’s striking guitar solos make for an incredible and memorable listening experience.
2. THE CHATS Their high-octane songs provide thoughtful insights into problems faced in modern society, such as the sharp increase in tobacco prices or the devastating effects of online identity theft. We can’t get enough of them! 3.
STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN Somewhat of a ‘guitar hero’ for our own guitarist, Jordan. Stevie Ray Vaughan’s technical abi.
