Music has been at the heart of my life since school, early instruments were Harmonica piano, mandolin, guitar, drums, flute & piccolo, sax and singer.

1st Kings Regiment 1966 to 1974

"Royal Collage of Music" Knellor Hall London. 1969-1970

First signs of natural ability came by chance with "The Kingtones" while with them on a gig, the singer had a sore throat one night & before I new what had happened I had sung three songs, and after sitting down, thinking that was so natural, and since then the rest has been a long road of enjoyment and adventure.

"Hetherington & James" Duo 1975-1980

"Bryan Hetherington" multi instrumentalist 1980-1985

"Bryan Kramer" 1986- present day still performing

"Rock Stewart" 2005- present day still performing.

Wigan's very own Rod Stewart has toured over the years with such distinguished artiste's as Janet Wilson & the Supreme's, Bernard Manning, Matt Munroe, Del Shannon, The Krankies, Malcolm Vaughn, Ken Dodd, to name but a few.

Blessed with a voice like Rod Stewart. 4 years ago after repeated requests from a number of agents & friends, I embarked into the world of the tribute scene, singing to stunned audiences, so much so that the next move was to expose the results to a local agent who quickly saw the potential and got me some lucrative bookings.

The similarities between the real Rod Stewart and myself are surprising to say the least. I used to play football intermediate for Manchester United and Bury when at school,

I learned to play harmonica at the age of 16,

my birthday is on the 14th January, Rod's is the 10th January.

I have been married 3 times just like Rod as well.

No wonder I look and sound like him.
