Californian rockers Tesla take over the show.
This week Californian rockers Tesla are taking over the show.
Formed in the mid 80s Tesla's music was bluesy, no frills 70s style hard rock, concentrating more on solid musicianship and maintaining a grounded attitude plus a genuine affection for old school hard rock, rather than vast arena-ready choruses like many bands of the day.
In keeping with their unpretentious blue collar roots, Tesla responded to stardom not by adopting the grand theatrics of their counterparts but by stripping things down. Setting them even further apart from their contemporaries was their t-shirt and jeans image, which contrasted with a glam metal look characterised by leather pants and flashy make up.
They come in to select some of their fave tracks and play songs from their brand new album Forever More.
