Phat Gandalf

Phat Gandalf is a three-piece band based in Broadstairs, Kent, delivering a wild ride through decades of music with a signature rock edge. Their setlists are a genre-hopping mix of funk, pop, rock, punk, and party anthems, all reimagined with grit, groove, and a healthy dose of humour.

The band features:

• Joe Green

• Mike Orvis

• Graham Ford

Together, they form a tight, charismatic unit that thrives on live energy and audience connection. Whether they’re tearing through a Kerrang-era favourite, dropping a funk-laced classic, or flipping a pop hit on its head, Phat Gandalf keeps the crowd guessing—and dancing.

Their shows are built for fun: no venue is too big or too small, from festival stages to kitchen parties. They’ve played across Kent and beyond, with recent gigs at Pearson’s Arms in Whitstable and Hampton Bay Park in Herne Bay, and they’re equally at home in pubs, weddings, or full-on festival slots.

Described as a “function and party band with a twist”, Phat Gandalf brings a DIY ethos and a professional polish, making them a go-to act for anyone looking to turn a night out into a full-blown event.
