About 60's
The band “60’s”, so called to describe the genre of music offered comprises experienced musicians who have been playing sixties music since the sixties. Sixties music is enjoyed by all, young or old & always generates excitement & entertainment for any venue or occasion. Sing-a-long with the band is the norm, dancing to the band is inevitable, walking frames are optional (we leave ours at the door). The band is visually strong, has a female “front” vocalist & all members of the band are vocalist. Humour & banter with the audience is a no-charge extra but requires a “live” audience. With a little persuasion the organ player will do magic tricks, but he has retired from performing headstands on the organ. Perfectly suited for pub / restaurant gigs, festivals, markets, shows, corporate functions etc. (even wakes if the deceased is up to it).
Gigging Experience
We saw a Whiter Shade of Pale when Peggy Sue got Married in the House of the Rising Sun, around the corner from Spanish Harlem, Under the Boardwalk. Beethoven rolled over when Bad Bad Leroy Brown messed around with Jim, but there was Joy to the World on Route 66 when My Girl made Johnnie B Goode. You will Unchain my Heart & Gimme Some Lovin if you Save the Last Dance for me. But She’s Not There, in Itchicoo Park, maybe she is a Runaway, or was it her Lyin Eyes that made Mustang Sally Put the Lime in the Coconut. If you Stand by Me, it will be Wonderful Tonight.
