Blues drenched riffs, hymn crushing hooks, and a mean blast of gut punch drums. Powerhouse rock duo WHISKY STAIN are notorious for their huge live sound and energetic performances. Practiced and honed, distilled to a fierce gospel perfection, these boys are not to be missed.

 

Robert Lavington (Vocals & Guitar) and Luke Grainger (Drums) have performed together since 2011. Initially forged in London, before migrating north to Nottingham where both members now reside. WHISKY STAIN was originally set out to be a side project, until the full capability and sonic potential of this outfit was understood and unleashed. WHISKY STAIN quickly became both members main musical focus. 

 

Hand picked by BBC Introducing, scouted for Y Not, Bearded Theory, Deerstock Festival and others, the soundtrack to Sky Atlantic's hit series Ray Donovan... These are just some of their highlights to date. 

 

WHISKY STAIN is more than a band, it’s an identity, it’s brotherhood, it’s family. For the last decade and a half, the love and support of the WHISKY STAIN fan base has been the energy and driving force behind this project. Become part of the family, join the journey.
