Rebel Territory are a brash young power trio featuring a guitarist who might just be the first guitar hero to come out of England for a long long time. Lee Zajciw (pronounced "Zash-oo") is a kid who can play. Lifelong mates Lee and bassist James Oldrini grew up on a diet of Jimi Hendrix, The Who, The Beatles and Oasis whilst metal influenced drummer Sean Skinner blends together Rebel Territory. Their sound, unsurprisingly, is an exhilarating mix of psychedelia, heavy Brit rock riffs and soaring choruses. Classic elements, a fresh approach.

Excitement around Rebel Territory is spreading fast. The band has been featured in a BBC TV report and they were filmed for a Harley Davidson documentary on American TV. They are wowing audiences all around the UK with unbelievable guitar histronics and a frenzied live show. Their debut EP, titled "Clements Road", is available now!
