Highly recommend (10 / 10)" Based in Saint Leonards-on-Sea, England (11 miles from Rye) Chloe Smith - Private Wedding Photo of Kaleidoscope Female Vocal Duo Kaleidoscope Female Vocal Duo "Brilliant night! Everyone really enjoyed their set. Great mix of songs, everyone was up and dancing! Hayley and Emma both have great personality’s and superb voices. Will book them again!" Based in Eastbourne, England (23 miles from Rye) Freddy Dorset - NYE party at the Old Granary Pub, Wareham Photo of Lewis Ross Music Lewis Ross Music "Lewis was amazing!! We had him at our little civil ceremony in Brighton and he was a true highlight of the ceremony. We listened to so many musicians during our search, and while many were undoubtedly talented, a lot of them seemed to put their interpretation ahead of the music itself. We were looking for someone who would let the songs shine, and that's exactly what he did, while having a beautiful voice himself. His voice is natural without sounding overdone or forced. His performances felt authentic, heartfelt, and true to the songs we already knew and loved. Rather than trying to reinvent them, he captured everything that made them special in the first place, which was exactly what we wanted for our wedding. As well as his great voice, he was also incredibly responsive, helpful and accommodating. He followed the brief exactly, and we are truly grateful. We would have him again in a heartbeat and definitely recommend him to others."

The 1960s era musicians & bands cover a wide range of 1960s genres including British Invasion pop, Motown, soul, psychedelic rock, surf rock and folk rock. Many bands specialise in a particular 1960s style, while others offer a broader mix of the decade's biggest hits.

Many clients book 1960s era musicians & bands for themed parties, weddings, corporate events, festival stages and milestone birthday celebrations. The 1960s produced some of the most recognisable songs in popular music, making it an era that appeals to a wide audience across all age groups.

A typical booking for 1960s era musicians & bands covers two to three hours of live music, usually divided into sets with breaks. The upbeat, danceable nature of 1960s material means sets tend to be high-energy and work well as evening entertainment. Performance times can often be adjusted to suit the event schedule.

Many 1960s era musicians & bands are flexible with their repertoire and can include songs from the late 1950s through to the early 1970s to complement their core 1960s setlist. It is worth checking each band's profile or asking directly about their full repertoire when making an enquiry.

Most 1960s era musicians & bands are self-contained and bring their own instruments, amplifiers and PA system. For larger venues or events with over 300 guests, additional sound reinforcement may be required. It is a good idea to discuss the venue size and layout with the band before booking.
