Welcome to the website of Somerset's Rhythm & Blues Band, NOMEANFEAT. Keep up with all latest band activity via the news and blog pages. Live music is key to the band so check out our setlist and gig dates. Should you wish to book the band then please get in touch via the contact us page.
NOMEANFEAT are a five piece, upbeat, rhythm, rock and blues band. Think guitar led rock with keyboard, bass and drums that gives a raw but tight sound, creating rock tempo blues that you just have to get up and dance to. NOMEANFEAT gig in local pubs, clubs, events and private parties. The music comes from the 60s 70s 80s and 90s but recalls the era of British rhythm and blues. This is music that stomps out pulse and beat, that builds and drives with controlled guitar breaks, harmonica and strong blues vocals.
NOMEANFEAT are regulars at pubs around the Bath/Radstock area and have played a number of outdoor festival events including Blues in the Barn (Headliner - Paul Jones band); Mary Port Blues Festival (Headliner -John Mayall Blues Band), The Custom Bike and Truck Festival at Castle Carey, Shoscombe Festival and the Wessex Beer Festival for the last couple of years.
