About the Band – Hacienda Band

Hacienda are Ryan, Chris, Greg and Dave.

Ryan started to get serious about playing drums during lock-down. He plays an electronic kit which means he can change the mood at the click of a switch. The solid beats he lays down keep the rest of the band in-sync enabling us to sound… like the real deal!

Greg is a serious and talented lead guitarist. His career has taken him underwater for long periods but lucky for us he is on extended shore duties and knocking out soaring solos.

Our multi-instrumental front-man Dave sings, plays keyboards, synthesizers and provides rhythm guitar to let Greg’s solos break free. Dave has been playing since he was a mere youngster performing with bands including The Stealers, 7 to 4 and The Lemon Sharks. By fronting Hacienda he has found his true home, playing top 1990s Indie tunes.

Our bassist Chris runs the light show (live!) and chips in with backing vocals. He’s the band’s tech support who can be found recording audio, producing mixes, updating social media and the website. He also writes original material a couple of which have been published.

…and that’s us. Completing the team is sound engineer Noah who has the most important job of all – making sure we sound top-notch at all times!
