Heavy Duty

Wayne Gardner's Heavy Duty is a high energy, classic rock guitar-based solo act. He punches out a variety of kick-ass rock covers from a diverse repertoire that won't restrict the audience to head bang and be on their feet, or on their knees (BOC joke!).

He's an enthusiastic guitar aficionado ready to rock at your venue to create an environment you'd love to be in. Heavy Duty generates a full band sound and light show in a compact solo soirée.

Over the past 4 decades Wayne has played at many East Coast Australian gigs as a member of acts including Lionheart, Avion, Stranger, Fallon & Terry Halliday. Wayne has performed at venues including Capitol Theatre, Hordern Pavillion, Waves, Kempsey Macleay RSL, Manly Vale Hotel, War & Peace, Caringbah Hotel, Doyalson RSL, & The Tivoli to name just a few.

Heavy Duty pays homage to 60-90's classic rock covers and blues that appeals to a wide age group. Don't let the solo thing fool you... this is high energy, massive rock with world-class guitar work.

Heavy Duty's repertoire consists of hard rock, rock & blues rock classics by artists such as Thin Lizzy, UFO, Led Zeppelin, Rainbow, Metallica, The Angels, AC/DC, Rory Gallagher, Guns N' Roses, Status Quo, Van Halen, ZZ Top, Robin Trower, DIO, The Rolling Stones, Ted Nugent, Rush, BOC, Bachman Turner Overdrive, Judas Priest, Black Sabbath and many more.

Experience the ultimate heavy rock guitar solo celebration with Heavy Duty - don't miss out!

Wayne provides full PA and lights using high quality backing tracks with world-class guitar work.
