Marco Mendoza (ex- Thin Lizzy, Whitesnake, Journey etc.) + Support: Rough'n'Rude

Thin Lizzy, Whitesnake, Journey, The Dead Daisies, Ted Nugent, Black Star Riders, Blue Murder, Lynch Mob, Neal Schon, John Sykes, Bill Ward, Dolores O'Riordan - the list reads like a tour through rock history. And right in the middle of it all: Marco Mendoza. The bassist, vocalist and born performer has played, recorded and toured with some of the biggest names in rock - and he's coming back to Soundcheck One.

Anyone who has seen Mendoza live knows straight away: this is no ordinary musician. It's raw stage energy. World-class groove, rock'n'roll charisma, a powerful voice and a presence that fills the room. His set draws on his own releases as well as the many projects of his remarkable career - hard rock, classic rock, blues, soul, funk and Latin flavours all in one.

Opening the night: ROUGH'N'RUDE from Stuttgart. The German-American sleaze heavy rock band delivers dirty, honest rock'n'roll, strong hooks and sweat-soaked live shows. No backing tracks, no faking it - 100% live, 100% handmade, 100% party. Since reforming in 2022 the band has been putting out uncompromising live energy, and their upcoming debut album "Good Enough To Eat" is already making some serious noise.
