Valve Rider are a raw, powerful, 4 piece original Rock band from the NW of England, delivering their own brand of blues-soaked, no frills, rock 'n' roll!
Founder/guitarist Nathan Moore formed the band with Adam Ward (vocals) and Paul Glover (bass), their friendship and shared love of music and improvisation being the glue. Together they set off on a musical journey that has taken them all over the UK, from The Cavern to the 100 Club and beyond.
Playing together, as well as with other musicians, they have earned their stripes many times over, and their experience and bond shines brightly. No matter who they play with or under what name they appear, Moore’s distinctive playing and writing along with Ward’s powerful vocals and presence have always been the driving force and heart of the band, whether it be with a full band or as the stripped down acoustic duo they gig alongside and in between full band gigs.
