The Sensational Alex Harvey Experience + Hugh Reed and The Velvet Underpants, United Kingdom, 2026

The Sensational Alex Harvey Experience + Hugh Reed and The Velvet Underpants

Since forming 10 years ago as a Sensational tribute to Scotlands finest, one-of-a-kind rock sons and his band, the Sensational Alex Harvey Experience (SAHE) have grown to become one of the most respected tribute bands on the circuit. Furthermore, they are described as "the best SAHB tribute band out there", by Zal Cleminson himself. 2025 is an anniversary for the band which coincides with the 50 year anniversary of the release of the legendary SAHB 'Live' album. SAHE will play all songs from the album as part of their 2025/26 set. The fact that they also have the nod from kin of the late, great and sadly missed Alex Harvey (My dad would have approved" -Alex Harvey Jr.) is another pointer to the combined talents of vocalist Andy Massie, keyboardist David Cowan, guitarist Rob Jones, bass player Nelson McFarlane and drummer Chris Killen. The original SAHB bass player (Chris Glen) has also shared the stage with SAHE and said "they are the best SAHB since SAHB!"

Recording and releasing new licenced versions of classic numbers is an innovative approach for a tribute band but one that has been welcomed by SAHB aficionados of old, and new fans picked up 'on the road. But then, the Sensational Alex Harvey Experience are first and foremost SAHB fans themselves, dedicated to keeping both the music, and the theatrics, alive. The Sensational Alex Harvey Experience has already toured extensively throughout the UK to great receptions and are regular headliners at the annual SAHBROCK Charity event in Glasgow which benefits the Glasgow Sick Childrens Hospital.
