1950s / 1960s show band

1950s / 1960s show band

This 1950s/60s show band enjoyed a Christmas party residency in 2012 with Best Parties Ever. With authentic costumes, strong vocals and an infectious sense of fun, they capture the spirit of the 50s and 60s exquisitely, whisking you back in time. Expect numbers by the likes of Connie Francis, Buddy Holly, The Ronettes and the Beatles to name but a few!

The 5-piece line-up consists of guitar, bass, keys, drums, lead and backing vocals. In addition, the band has a dedicated sound engineer, and all 6 share a wealth of experience and a genuine love of the music.

Available with a full PA and lighting system, the band will happily provide appropriate background music prior to the gig, in between sets and after the final encore! Ideal for corporate functions, private parties including weddings, theatres, hotels and club venues - if you want an evening full of dancing, a pinch of nostalgia and a large dash of fun, this is the band for you.

The band is based in Reading, but are also available in the rest of Berkshire, Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, London, Sussex, Surrey, Hampshire and Wiltshire.
