60s Tribute Band and Sixties Theme Bands

Fat Old Dad

Sixties theme band Fat Old Dad recently celebrated over 20 years together and in that time they have established themselves as one of the top UK 60s tribute bands. One of their most memorable performances was at the International Merseybeatle Festival in Liverpool which is attended by 80,000 people from all over the world. They were profiled in the popular sixties magazine 'The Beat Goes On' and feature regularly in the magazine. They have appeared with the David Essex, Chubby Checker, The Searchers, The Drifters, The Merseybeats, The Fortunes and comedian Frank Carson to name just a few. They very quickly became regulars at the Butlin's sixties Festivals making well over 35 appearances and have appeared on BBC Radio and at many of the major venues around the country including Arsenal Football Club, Apollo Theatre Oxford & the Rochester Festival.

Foundations

Why book a 60s tribute band when you can have the original sixties band? The Foundations’ first single, Baby Now That l've Found You sold in excess of 1 million records in the US alone before going on to top the UK charts. The band then moved on to even greater success when the follow up single Build Me Up Buttercup went to No 1 in the US and UK selling in excess of 15 million copies worldwide. Their music continues to endure and reach new generations, regularly featuring in films and TV ad campaigns to this day; perhaps the most famous being the use of Build Me Up Buttercup in the 1998 smash comedy film There's Something About Mary (starring Cameron Diaz) which is one of the biggest grossing films of all time. The band has enjoyed hugely successful gigs throughout the country and now looks forward to bringing their hard-hitting brand of exciting classic soul plus their million selling hits to a worldwide audience of both new and established fans.

Merseybeats

The Merseybeats can only be described as one of the most powerful exciting original 60s bands currently performing. They continue to enthral thousands of fans in the UK, Europe and World-wide, playing one night stands and package tours. They have just concluded a massive 61 date Solid Silver Tour with Gerry & The Pacemakers, The Searchers and The Swinging Blue Jeans. The Merseybeats are one of the most popular and authentic sixties bands playing 'Live' today. The Merseybeats performance is a spectacular pulsating experience, their classic sixties hits ' Think Of You' 'Wishin & Hopin' and 'Sorrow' are combined with emotive ballads and explosive pyrotechnic sets. Not a tribute, but an original who was there! The Merseybeats were voted Britain's Best sixties Band on four consecutive occasions, absolute proof they are No.1. with fans of the sixties.
