This blues infused, smoky-voiced Canadian lives and breathes the frontman persona, from classic rock to classic metal and every power ballad
in between.

THE DARKNISS
The Darkniss are the UK’s premier tribute to the British rock band The Darkness. Paying homage to legendary frontman Justin Hawkins is Theatre & TV Superstar Joe Gash (Grease, Rock of Ages, ITV’s Starstruck as Freddie Mercury, We Will Rock You) with his high-octane falsetto vocals and signature showmanship, backed by three musical veterans on Lead Guitar, Lead Bass and Lead Drums. Performing The Darkness’ biggest hits including ‘I Believe in a Thing Called Love’, ‘Growing on Me’, ‘Love Is Only a Feeling’ and ‘Christmas Time’ (all year round!), The Darkniss are guaranteed to deliver an electrifying performance no matter the occasion.
Be it known to thee that by the harmonious order of Their Royal Highnesses, The Darkniss of the Kingdom of
Spandex, thou art hereby summoned with utmost pomp and musical circumstance to partake in a grand gathering of rhythm, revelry, and raucous rejoicing.
