Today you can say you heard ‘BREAKING THE MOULD’ by ZAK LAYDEN & THE THIEVES here first!

Based in London, Zak Layden & The Thieves have been bringing back Rock n’ Roll since the beginning of 2022. The founding members Zak Layden (Frontman) and Matteo Blasi (Lead guitar) met in university, both of them studying music and being inspired by bands like AC/DC, Guns n’ Roses and Motley Cure, started sharing the same vision of creating music that brings you back to the time when Rock n’ Roll meant stage diving, groupies, head banging and mosh pits, all of which happens at every one of their gigs. With charisma, their instruments, and a few on-stage shots, Zak Layden & The Thieves give you the 70’s and 80’s rockstar experience that will make you scream their names.
