I remember years ago someone i know was after a band called Risky Business, which we saw at a Barn Dance and they were pretty good. Although it was over 10 years ago, so they could be long gone!  |

A band called Penfold played at my wedding a few years ago, my brother in law was the drummer so we got them very cheap . They've changed a bit now though as they don't have a keyboard player so their stuff is a bit rockier. I haven't seen them for a couple of years so not sure what stuff they're playing nowadays. Could still be worth a look though. http://www.myspace.com/penfoldthebandpenfold played at our rugby club ball last summer, thought they were really good. Lots of get up and jump around sort of songs that even I had the occasional stagger to. That may have been the 6X though.... |
