The Undisputed Champions of Chap Rock!
The Don Bradmans have been described as the 'Undisputed Champions of Chap Rock' which we kind of like and are running with....
We were born into life at The Big Green Gathering in 2002 where Don Ukelele and Don Guitar Bradman became the unofficial backing band for a girl called Jill. Unfortunately her whereabouts are now unknown but we continue the search. Soon we went on to serenade people as waiters with musical menus at Beautiful Days Festival, Big Green Gathering, Small World, Hairth Of Knockrach in Scotland. We particularly like to entertain gate crews at festivals because they look lonely at night. It was at this time that Don Drummer Bradman became involved: he was enticed out of hiding with a stick and the band was formed.
Now the line up involves six Dons and we have been seen playing at festivals to farmers' markets, bars to birthdays and houses to hen nights up and down the country!

The Don Bradmans come across like a 21st-Century Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band, with added festival kudos. Its upbeat music with humour, aided by
some great playing
and an easy-going stage manner. They call it Chap Rock - I say: good work, gents!
