Among the fun filled humour the range of songs chosen reflected the individual personalities within The British Rat Pack. They even overwhelmed listeners by performing live on air with the Rat Pack classic Ain’t that a kick in the head.
Originally booked for two live radio interviews the shows were so successful that they were immediately called back into the studio for a third. A delighted radio spokes person said “These guys are so much fun and far more than a Rat Pack tribute act”.
When asked Paul reflected in his own words; “There are a lot of successful and excellent swing shows out there. We’ve simply got an amazing chemistry that’s unique and our own. We sing all kinds of music with the amazing All Star big band, any genre from the classics to the current charts. We do not impersonate anyone I suppose we’re more like The Rat Pack in that most of our humour is natural and straight off the cuff”.
Rob from Radio Wave asked the guys “What plans do you have for the future”.
It’s all happening right now. We’ve a lot of private corporate parties. Bits lined up for TV. Obviously there’s the two Blackpool North Pier Theatre dates on the 20th and 27th of October. A five week theatre tour in the spring. The Big Variety Show on 23rd of November at Preston Guild Hall. A Christmas record being released. We’ll send you a copy or even pop in to see you around that time.
“Wow, you guys have got so much going on. Well listeners you’ve heard them sing live in the studio. Guys you’ve been absolutely fantastic, we’re looking forward to seeing you at the Pier.
