WHAT NEXT!
Imagine the Beatles, rolled into the Rolling Stones, spliced with Police, all shook up with Elvis Presley, cut with Van Morrison, in town with Thin Lizzy, stuck together with Roxy Music and crowned with Queen, then what you have, is a small flavour of what London's best rock and soul danceband can offer.
Formed by Old Harrovians Nick Herrtage and Peter Fricker, this London based seven piece band, re-creates some of the best and most well-loved classic soul pieces ever.

The dancefloor will seldom be empty.

GRAHAM DALBY AND THE GRAHAMOPHONES
Graham Dalby was asked in 1985 to form a Swing Band to celebrate 40 years of peace in Europe at a VE Day Charity Ball. He could never have guessed that some 15 years later this band would have gone on to record 20 albums and have performed live across the globe.
The Grahamophones are a Jazz Age Swing Band who are leading exponents in the re-creation of original arrangements of popular music from the great danceband days. Musical influences include Bing Crosby; Duke Ellington; Count Basie; Cab Calloway; Cole Porter; Benny Goodman; Glenn Miller; Tommy Dorsey; Louis Armstrong and Frank Sinatra to name but a few.Click to hear a sample of the band
ROBERT SCOTT
Robert Scott will remind you of the days when Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin strode the earth with a wonderful combination of jazz, swing and all those old time favourites. Robert has sung all over the world so just shut your eyes and you would think that you're in the presence of 'Ol' Blue Eyes' himself.Click to hear a sample of Robert Scott
CAFÉ NOIR
Café Noir, as its name suggests, is initially reminiscent of French Café Jazz in style, such as Stephane Grapelli and Django Rheinhardt. In realty, it is far more versatile offering popular tunes from around the world. The band can play amplified or totally acoustically, hence mobility at a function is no problem. The band embraces Jazz standard hits, musical shows as well as the best of classic French and Italian numbers.
