Chet O’Connell and the ‘Rock n’ Roll Riot’ is an explosive performance of 50’s and 60’s rock n roll, with a slight Country / Rock a Billy twist!

The ‘Rock & Roll Riot’ is the first point of call for festivals and Rock & Roll Hops, and always delivers exceptional entertainment. Featuring songs from Chuck Berry, Elvis, Eddie Cochrane, Buddy Holly, The Ventures and many more you are guaranteed to walk away wanting more.

The three lads are joined by Melissa who brings her dynamic performance style, a bit of ‘sparkle’ and the hits of Connie Francis, The Shirelles, Dusty Springfield the Crystals, and more into the mix.
