Fidel and the Castros

They are extremely musicaly talented friends who recently formed in Cheadle Hulme - Manchester, each bringing their own individual style to create their band's unique rock sound. Rick Powell on Vocals, Robin Leathley on Guitar, Stuie Stu on Bass and Dan Evans on Drums, all from completely different backgrounds and regular jobs that make time for their passion and love of rock music.

The band have elements similar to the Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Kings of Leon, with a mixture of FUNKY Blues and Indie Rock and are currently gigging around Manchester including Academy 3, Roadhouse, Alterego, The Night and Day Cafe and Dry Bar in Manchester's Northern Quarter, and were longlisted for the 'Glastonbury Emerging Talent Competition'.
