THE HERMAN’S HERMITS
STORY
TAKES YOU THROUGH AN EXCITING MUSICAL JOURNEY OF THE MUSIC
FROM ONE OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL BANDS IN THE 60’S.
The band combines the musical and vocal talents of
Ron Gaydon Wayne Place Barry Hardcastle Mark Redmayne
Ron’s early career as lead vocalist and guitarist led to a recording
contract with Festival Records, and an appearance on Countdown. He has
supported acts like Richard Clapton, Split Enz and Midnight Oil among
others. For the last 15+ years Ron has led and performed as lead singer and
guitarist in the popular Sydney tribute show, The 3Bs Show (Bee Gees, Beach
Boys and Beatles).
In more recent times Ron has also formed and performed in a number of
tribute shows including, The Immortality Show,
(Bee Gees and Hollies) and The Monkees Live Again (with Herman’s Hermits in
support).
The Herman’s Hermits Story was reborn in collaboration with Wayne Place on
Drums and lead vocals.
Wayne worked the Sydney club circuit performing for up to 4 nights a week
for many years in his early career as drummer and lead vocalist. His bands
performed many genres of music, and Wayne was highly regarded as a drummer
and singer at the highest level. Along the way Wayne worked with Tommy
Emmanuel on his single “Serene”, which was nominated at the Tamworth Music
Festival, and collaborated with Tommy on a number of radio jingles. Wayne
was also signed to Essex Music Australia. Wayne has recorded a number of
country albums, and continued to perform numerous shows over his long
career.
Barry has performed numerous shows in his career. Barry forged his career
doing many gigs in bands such as Bravura, and “Variety shows” like Jumpin
Jive, a recreation of artists in costume from the 50’s, and Catch 22, a
recreation of artists in costume from the 80’s. These shows enhanced Barry’s
versatility as an artist to this day. Hence when Barry joined The Herman’s
Hermits story,
he fit in like a glove, and has never looked back. He also spent time
working on the Tamworth club circuit,
and performing with notable artists like Troy Cassar-Daley.
Barry is recognised as one of the top bass guitar players in his field, and
adds a great third harmony to the band.
Mark has worked as a session guitarist in Tamworth and on the Gold Coast,
and is highly regarded as an accomplished Musician.
One of Mark’s career highlights included touring Australia and New Zealand
as lead guitarist for the Johnny Young Stars of Young Talent Time Show. Mark

have worked
along the East Coast of Australia, and was a member of the Beatles tribute
show for a number of years.
