Cockney Themed Band
Celebrating all things cockney, this band of professional musicians and singers will treat your guests to a right ol’ knees up complete with everybody’s favourite cockney tunes!
The practise of wearing clothes decorated with ‘pearly buttons’ in England in the 19th century when costermongers decorated the seems of their trousers with mother of pearl buttons that had been found by market traders. A street sweeper and fundraiser for charity adapted this costume to create a pearly suit that would draw attention to himself and aid his fund-raising activities - and so the tradition of the pearly suit began!
Adding a taste of history to your event, these pearl adorned performers are available to appear solo, as a duo, or as a full cockney band with six musicians! Their fun renditions of cockney favourites and comedy songs likes ‘Pack Up Your Troubles’, ‘Knees Up Mother Brown’, ‘Maybe It’s Because I’m A Londoner’ and ‘The Lambeth Walk’ will have everybody enjoying themselves on the dance floor. Every guest will also receive a mini union jack flag which they can raise in the air for the fabulous finale!
In addition to their live musical performances they can also appear to meet and greet guests and pose for photos. Whatever you event they will be able to create a tailor-made package to suit your specific needs!
" I am so glad that we found you both it worked really well. Everyone said how hard you worked as you didn't stop singing all the time that you were with us. Guests commented on how good you both were and where did I find you… people said that they hadn't enjoyed themselves so much in years. "

" Thank you! My grandparents had such a wonderful time, celebrating their birthdays with all their friends and family. Everyone said how wonderful you were and the 'meet and greet' went down so well, really made the event! I would definitely recommend you in the future and it was lovely to meet you and I am so pleased you were able to join us in our celebrations. "
