Nitefall plays at Woy Woy

 

Modern Australian rock band Nitefall played at Woy Woy Leagues Club on December 8 to an animated audience.

The band is a trio of lead singer and showman John Mizzi and guitarist-vocalists Steve Stapleton and Steve Andrews.

The band covers a wide range of songs of Australian rock from the 80s and 90s.

They use sample sounds from such artists as Midnight Oil, The Angels, Matchbox Twenty, The Doors, Talking Heads, and The Rolling Stones to give their cover songs a more authentic and full sound.

With John being from Toukley and the two Steve's from Bateau Bay, the group has played the club circuit on the Coast for six years, performing at Budgewoi Soccer Club, Wyong Leagues Club, Avoca Leagues Club, and to large audiences of several hundred at Gosford Leagues Club.

John has overcome heart illness to sing on, having had open-heart surgery a year ago, vowing he would be back on stage afterwards.

The band is currently recording a demo CD, while continuing its regular cover song touring.
