Melanie Green
Lead Vocals / Keyboards
Fleetwood Mac have produced one of Melanie’s absolute favourite collections of songs, and she is excited to be Stevie in Fleetwood Nicks.
On Vocals and keyboard, Melanie has performed in many rock bands, a big band, in stage musicals, trios and solo. Melanie is also a classically trained pianist. She is sometimes seen performing alongside her dad, Rob Askew, who occasionally fills in on bass guitar for Fleetwood Nicks!
Some of the bands she is associated with include; “Girl Power from the 60s” presented by the Starliners, Next Best Thing classic hits trio, The Distractions, Merabella female vocal group and The Shy Guys. Melanie is a child of the 80’s who has also been absorbing the music of the 60’s and 70’s from her parents since she was an embryo. She is a top shelf singer and has received a Mo award for her work with The Shy Guys.
Berni Wallace
Lead Vocals / Keyboards
Bernadette has spent a life on stage with the obligatory ballet, tap and jazz dance training and piano and vocal lessons. Her roots are in musical theatre performing in over 50 productions in both ensemble and lead roles where she learnt to master the harmonies that are so essential to recreate the sound of Fleetwood Mac.
Berni is an experienced dance/choreographer which shows in the sleek moves she has conceived in her other tribute band “Girl Power from the 60’s, presented by Starliners”. She also accomplishes smooth, easy listening vocals in her harmonic trio “Merabella”.
Berni appears as Christine McVie in Fleetwood Nicks, performing such timeless hits as Songbird, Little Lies and You Make Lovin’ Fun. She channels Christine with her vocals, piano and costumes to pay tribute to such an amazingly talented musician and songwriter.
Steve Green
Guitar & Vocals
Steve has played countless shows in various bands in pubs, clubs & music festivals all over NSW since the halcyon days of the 80’s live music scene. One of the first albums he ever purchased on vinyl (remember those?) was Fleetwood Mac’s magnum opus Rumours.
A seasoned professional who gets the right sounds and plays for the song, Steve fills Lindsay Buckingham’s vocal and guitar spot… along with the obligatory flared jeans and Velvet jacket.
You’ll Also find Steve fronting the amazing “The Dark Side – A Pink Floyd Experience”. The whole room is always in awe of how he exactly replicates the sound of Pink Floyd.
Chris Askew
Guitar & vocals
Melanie Green’s little brother Chris joined the band in 2022. You’ll see him playing the acoustic guitar with a smattering of electric, and is really just happy to be here!
Jason Long
Bass guitar
Jason has played Bass in many cover/tribute bands/duos in recent years. Some of the cover/tribute bands are: Soundproofed, 80s Rock Revival, 70s Revival, Aussie Rock Revival, 2 Shots Classic Rock, Max Power, Party Revival, Back to the 70s, Back to the 80s, Keep the Faith Bon Jovi, Beyond the Beatles and Springsteen Mellencamp.
His highlights include playing in all 3 Lizottes venues and playing for the Macarthur Disability Services annual ball at the Cube Campbelltown.
From early beginnings in cover bands Jason has held onto his passion for 80s music and loves locking in with that rock beat with Guns and Roses and Noise Works.
Bernie Hallam
Drums / percussion
Fleetwood Mac’s ‘Tusk’ was the reason Bernie started playing drums. Originating from the Melbourne Ska, Indie Pop & Acid Jazz scene, he moved to Sydney in 2016 to become a covers and tribute specialist featuring in the legendary Back to the 70’s/80’s and Australian Beach Boys Shows, fill-ins for Rattle n Hum as well as Springsteen Mellancamp, Rolling Stones, Crowded House Split Enz, Coldplay and Doors shows, plus various classic/pop/party cover bands.
He’s honed his craft with the likes of Peter Luscombe (RocKwiz, Black Sorrows, Paul Kelly) and Peter Jones (Crowded House, Deb Conway). Bands give him credit for his tasteful & danceable feel and being a solid backbone to the rhythm section.
