Nazareth is without doubt the biggest Rock Band to emerge from Scotland. They were the pioneers who took Scottish Rock international and paved the way for the many other great Scottish bands that came later…. the likes of Big Country, Simple Minds etc. The original members first came together in Pete Agnew’s band “The Shadettes” in 1968 and changed the name to
NAZARETH in 1970.

The line up today consists of Jimmy Murrison (the longest serving Naz guitarist in the band’s history), Lee Agnew (drummer Since Darrell Sweet’s death in 1999), Pete Agnew (founder member since he can’t remember) and new singer Carl Sentance who joined the band in 2015 after Dan McCafferty had to retire due to ill health.

Reviewing one of the first shows with Carl performing as lead singer, a member of the Rock press confirmed what the band members already agreed that: “He fits right in as a man on a mission to prove his worth and totally nails it. He has mastery of the material and wears the songs like an old leather jacket”. Over the last five decades Nazareth have played literally thousands of concerts worldwide ranging from rock clubs to stadiums and when asked one time if he could remember playing in a certain town, Pete answered if it’s got electricity we’ve played it”.
