Wine Bar & Grill Bredbury SK6 2JW - 430 3984 Our format is quite different to other artists ....... we do NOT have a preset set of songs
we do it as a 'request show' by handing out our 'music menu'

The audience can choose from a list of artists featuring
Pop, Blues, Soul, R&B, Tamla Motown, Rock 'n' Roll music from the 50s to the present

Our backing tracks are top quality, and our sound system is superb.

We take it in turn to do a song, sometimes helping each other with harmonies,

some songs of course are duets, I play harmonica on some of the blues & country songs

We can cover over 1000 songs between us, not all 'A' list songs of course,

but it means we could play a weekly venue with a different set for the whole year

Book us for your Special Occasion, and choose the songs you'd like us to do for you

some of the artists we cover

Abba, Adele, Alan Jackson, Alicia Keys, Amy Winehouse, Anastacia, Aretha Franklin

BB King, Beatles, Bee Gees, Bob Dylan, Blues Brothers, Bryan Adams, Bryan Ferry, Buddy Holly
