• 4 bookings

Playing a complete mixture of music is the best way to make sure that everyone gets to hear something they really like. We don't work to a fixed setlist, but prefer to watch our audience and chop/change our music selections to suit. That way we can make sure the dance floor is always full. Our repertoire is huge and takes in all musical styles/genres such as Swing, Rock 'n' Roll, Motown & Soul, 60's, 70' Disco, 80's, Indie/Rock and of course, current chart hits too.
