Based
in Nottingham, Revival
have been performing now for over 33 years, entertaining audiences
across the country and helping to raise many thousands of pounds
for charity.
Revival are a group of musicians who specialise in re creating
the sounds of the late 1950's and the 1960's. They are not a
tribute band although their aim is to re create the sound and
excitement of the original artistes from that era. Revival's
music covers the whole range of recordings from the period 1958
to 1975 calling heavily on the golden age of pop from 1965 to
1969. On rare occasions the choice of music finds the band in
more recent decades but there is always an outstanding song
that took them there. The great music from those early years
soon draws them back and they quickly return to more familiar
ground. Creating the Revival sound requires the use of state
of the art amplification equipment, authentic instruments, great
musicianship and fabulous vocal harmonies. Take a listen elsewhere
on the site.
Revival's trademark drape jackets were worn on their first ever,
"one night only" gig, the home made versions having
now been replaced with tailored ones. This image has become
such a familiar sight for their audiences,
that the band continues to open each show wearing the eye catching
outfits.
The drapes were popularised in the late 1950's and became associated
with Teddy Boys and Rock 'n' Roll music. REVIVAL are not primarily
a 1950's rock and roll band although they can and do re create
the music from that era within their sets, music that leads
nicely into a string of hits from the swinging sixties, an age
in which most of their music was created.
"You're never to old to Rock 'n' Roll" or "Twist
and Shout", well let's hope not anyway!
Revival
