What do you get when you combine the nutty boy humour of Madness with the irreverence & jangly guitars of The Smiths, the thoughtful intelligent lyrics of The Beautiful South, the Cheeky Chappy cockney style of The Kinks & the mind bogglingly intricate Saxophone chops of John Coltrane?  Well, add to that a rhythm section that will get your toes tapping & your feet itching to get up on the dance floor with a mix of Rock & Roll, Pop, Soul, Funk & Reggae, then you’ll have all the ingredients that go to make up The Don’t Look Now Band.  

They have songs about almost anything you can think of, so if you’re fed up with hearing the same old love you hate you, I want you back, I don’t want you back tunes that make up much of the pop charts, then why not take a break from all that & listen to some songs about something much more interesting instead, like  tabloid journalism, selling used cars, stamp collecting, holiday romance, bank robbery, staying calm in a crisis, artificial intelligence,  a particular style of glasses worn by John Lennon & having an affair with your cousin.

Their latest album “The Elephant in the Room”  is currently storming up the pop charts with quite literally dozens of streams already & it’s also available on CD for a very reasonable price!

They even have their own Christmas song which they will of course be re releasing every year until the end of time. 

Aside from playing their own original music, they also perform as a function band at weddings & parties & have a repertoire of over 300 songs from the 60s right up to the present day, which includes everything from Elvis to Ed Sheeran &  will have everyone from toddlers to grandads up on the dance floor having a great time!​

Recent customers have said:- 

"Fantastic band! Everyone was dancing all evening & really enjoyed it. Great selection of songs too!"

"Thank you so much for performing at our wedding. I don't think the dance floor was empty all night!"

"Brilliant band. Top voices!"

"Absolutely fantastic! And great personalities to go with it"
