About these 1950s & 1960s Bands

For those who love the sweet sounds of the 50s & 60s, a vintage band is the perfect choice when finding the right entertainment for an event (such as a wedding!). A professional vintage band will recreate the exciting atmosphere of the 50s and 60s by taking their audience on a trip down memory lane, playing the hits of artists such as The Beatles, Elvis Presley, The Rolling Stones, Johnny Cash and many more!

‘50s and ‘60s bands are perfect for many different styles of events, particularly big birthday parties such as a 70th. This way the birthday girl or boy can be taken on a trip down memory lane by a great live band that you can rely on to get your guests up and dancing!

When you’re searching for your ideal ‘50s/’60s band, try and find some videos or recordings of the band playing live. This way you can be sure that they’re as good as they say they are and you wont get any nasty surprises come the day of your event!

Most experienced, professional bands also have a section for testimonials on their website where previous customers can leave give a recommendation of the band which can be particularly useful for future customers!

All vintage ‘50s and ‘60s bands will have a varied repertoire that takes from all your favourite artists, but they may not necessarily know how to play your favourite song. Many bands will learn a new song for an extra charge as it’s something people regularly ask for. You’ll need to make sure you give the band plenty of notice before the event for this though, you can’t expect them to learn a new song just days before the big day!

Hiring a vintage band is perfect for those who remember the 50s/60s and those who are fans of the influential music that it brought along. A vintage band will add a special touch to your event that other bands cannot, especially if you’re a fan of The Beatles or Elvis Presley!
