Superstitious Band

Sydney’s newest and funkiest covers band has been launched as of Wednesday the 9th May.

From their website:
Superstitious, the newest and freshest covers band in Sydney is ready to entertain. With experienced players from a range of musical backgrounds, you’ll be grooving to hits from the smooth sounds of Stevie and Aretha to the modern beats of Christina and Beyonce. Superstitious are an energetic 8 piece band with a line-up that features a funky four piece rhythm section of drums, guitar, bass and keyboard backing a dynamic male and female duo complimented by a smoking 3 piece horn section. The infectious energy of Superstitious will draw you to the floor and leave you wanting more. Check out our song list and contact us today.


I concur with this description. If I didn’t have a leg injury you may have even found me on the dance floor. That is saying something about the music that they played. You can’t help but move. Unfortunately sometimes I focus too much on the drumming and forget about the music as a whole.

Their influences are:
Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin, Blues Brothers, The Temptations, Otis Redding, Marvin Gaye, James Brown, The Commitments, Beyonce, Christina Aguilera, Michael Jackson, Ray Charles and many more.

Just like every band around they have a MySpace website where you can here a funky sampler of their music.
