Mini Metallica cover is an online hit

This particular clip was taken at the Bucklebury Beer Festival on Saturday and has received 350,000 hits on YouTube in four days.

The Mini Band is made up of Harry Jackson aged 8, Zoe Thomson aged 8, Kieran Fell aged 8, Harrison Read aged 8, Charlie Emmons aged 10, Archie Zolotuhin aged 10.

David Emmonds, father of drummer Charlie, 10, said (via BBC News): "People are totally thrown at the quality they kick out."

He continued: "I think it's because they are so small - it's really odd to watch."

The youngsters have all been playing from as young as five & attend the Let's Play Rock music school in Thatcham.

The bands set list also features hits from Muse, Red Hot Chilli Peppers & Guns N Roses.

Elizabeth Fell, mother of guitarist Kieran, said: "They've definitely got the cute factor. They do it for enjoyment and they all love performing."
