DEEPER PURPLE - Hommage an Deep Purple
DEEPER PURPLE occupies a unique position in the international tribute scene, delivering an outstanding homage to Deep Purple, the rock giants that have thrilled generations of musicians and music fans for over five decades. Iconic tracks such as "Highway Star," "Black Night," "Woman from Tokyo," "Child in Time," "Perfect Strangers," "Mistreated," and the greatest hit "Smoke on the Water" will be featured, alongside carefully selected gems that evoke chills even among the most devoted fans. Expect a dynamic and energetic show that lasts more than two hours.
The band is comprised of members from all corners of Europe: singer Luca Ravase, a charismatic talent from Italy who now calls Greece home after 17 years in London; English guitarist Rob Sas, residing in Marbella, Spain; drummer Thomas Hauser from Munich, Germany; bassist Phil Crombie from near London; and keyboardist David Chapman from Sunderland, northern England.
In 2020, former Rainbow keyboardist Paul Morris toured with the band, appearing in several videos produced during the lockdown phase. Additionally, former Rainbow singer Dougie White performed some gigs with DEEPER PURPLE. The two reunited in Edinburgh to play songs together with the band for the first time in 25 years.
Founded in Marbella in 2014, DEEPER PURPLE has been touring regularly through the UK and Spain. After a recent three-week UK tour, shows in Spain, the UK, and Germany are planned to celebrate their ten-year anniversary.
