This trio of superb musicians begin each show with straightforward melodies and footstomping rock and roll. Having gathered their audience the pace increases with increasingly wild and wicked renditions of all time favourite classics from ‘Boots’ and ‘Summertime Blues’ to ‘Blue Moon of Kentucky’. Each song is interspersed with cleverly crafted comedy routines bringing the music alive and encouraging the audience to become part of the show every step of the way. They will have toddlers dancing to ‘Wild Thing’ whilst 
teenagers link arms and join in to the chorus of ‘Delilah’. For the finale they bring the entire audience together as one giant choir for the chorus of ‘I’m a Believer’. This popular show is absolutely sure to have audiences of all ages singing and dancing on the streets.

The Courgettes
Take three seasoned musicians, sprinkle with classic food songs ‘Saturday night Fish Fry , ‘Sugar Sugar’ and a superb Sausage Roll finale. Leave to sizzle at high temperature for 30 minutes and serve with tongue in cheek. These three musical chefs bring jazz, ska, swing and rock and roll to the kitchen with plenty of fun and games for the audience. Great costumes, great music, great fun. The Courgettes are available with self contained PA as a static show or as a roving acoustic walkabout.
