The Rockney Rhymer delights audiences with his own Rockney knees up, creating a great atmosphere with a large dollop of knees up songs and London music featuring many of the hits of Chas & Dave, (Gert'cha, Sideboard song, Rabbit), Lonnie Donegan, traditional Irish songs, Rock & Roll and some foot stomping classics all performed with infectious enthusiasm, energy and good banter.
As a solo or with pianist George as the Rockney Rhymers and with other bands including Here Be Dragons and The Cockney Rovers he has performed throughout the UK and Europe at festivals, theatres, pubs and clubs. Pat guarantees a great atmosphere and proper entertainment. If you like to party and music in the rockney style of Chas and Dave this is a night not to be missed.

Absolutely incredible!! Lovely guys! Everyone was so impressed! Thank you will definitely be in touch for more bookings x
Group were fantastic, very professional, very obliging and outstanding quality. Thank you for such a great experience. The lead singer could also be a stand up comic. The whole afternoon/evening was one to remember. It was such short notice that I was a little apprehensive but as soon as they started playing my apprehension disappeared. I would recommend them without hesitation. Thank you.
Patric was a true professional from start to finish. I look forward to booking him again for my next event.
Absolutely fab, would use again and recommend. Interacted with us all, great music, friendly and fun. Thank you.
