Our latest gig

We successfully premiered ‘Happy’ the other weekend, and felt pretty chuffed at getting everyone on the dance floor: 

  

Happy!

A new repertoire item, Pharrell’s sublime ‘Happy’ from Despicable Me 2. It’ll be ready for this Saturday’s private party…happy, happy, happy, happy!  

Material Girls

We’re polishing up our version of Madonna’s  Material Girl ready for a private birthday party next month – a hint, it’s one of our band and he’s going to be Fifty!

We’re looking for some new dresses as our original ones are looking a bit tatty after all these gigs.  Madge could carry this off in her 1980s heyday, we don’t want to show her up, so will stick to something a little more understated….

Footloose

Who doesn’t love a bit of Bacon? We do, hence cooking up our Accidentals version of Footloose.  Here’s Kev himself in mean. moody and magnificent mode.  We’re trying out the band parts on Saturday, including our new guitarist John doing the ‘doingy doingy dong dong’ intro. Sizzlin’….
