LES McKEOWN’S BAY CITY ROLLERS -The band shot to superstardom with "Keep On Dancing", the Bay City Rollers' first single, quickly followed by "Remember: Sha La La La”, “Shang-A-Lang”, "Summerlove Sensation" and "All Of Me Loves All Of You" all hitting the Top Five. "Bye Bye Baby", released in 1975, was their first UK Number 1, which was followed by "Give A Little Love”, just few months after. Other hits include “Love Me Like I Love You”, “Money Honey” and “I Only Want To Be With You”. "Rollin'" was their debut album and reached the number 1 position the first of many chart toppers!

The demand to hear the Bay City Rollers with Les McKeown is still enormous!

SMOKIE - To be rock 'n' roll survivors is an achievement. To be Europe's top live band, 45 years after its inception is truly fantastic. The band scored their first top 3 with “If You Think You Know How To Love Me” which went onto sell millions around the world. Other singles include “Don't Play Your Rock 'n' Roll To Me”, “Living Next Door To Alice”, “Oh Carol”, “Needles & Pins”, “It’s Your Life” and “For A Few Dollars More”. “Living Next Door To Alice (Who the F**K is Alice)” featuring Roy Chubby Brown brought yet another new dimension into the band's history. First a hit for Smokie in 1976 and reaching number 5 in the charts it is somewhat ironic that since its re-release in 1995, it again reached the top 5 selling in excess of 200,000 copies. http://smokie.co.uk/
