It was on this day 36 years ago that Don Henley released his 'Boys Of Summer' single...here's our acoustic version recorded earlier in the year in lockdown. Enjoy! 😎

Have you guys had a great bank holiday weekend? Hopefully you've had the opportunity to enjoy the sunshine ☀️😎. We thought it'd be fun to share this Jelly Jam with you as a nod towards the summer shows we'll all look forward to in the future! Have we mentioned we miss you?😥

If you're enjoying our Isolation Sessions, please take a moment to LIKE and COMMENT - thank you!

Next up is Radio Ga Ga which won the public vote - full band bringing the majesty of Queen from our front rooms to yours.

We'd like to dedicate this track to Karen Seager and friends (we'll party with you in 2021), The Fountain Of Ale Sittingbourne (can't wait to return to your great venue soon) and Richard Jones who loves this song 🙂

NEW JELLY JAM

The nights are drawing in and the weather's terrible...can we sprinkle some sugar on your evening? This Jelly Jam is a massive rock classic from an album that sold MILLIONS in the 1980s.

Be sure to watch to the end for a fleeting glimpse of Dave's legendary keytar 😲

If this one makes you sing along or play air guitar, please LIKE and COMMENT - we always want to know what you think 😎

A SHARE would make us eternally grateful 😘

Stay safe and look after each other - we miss you!!!

This is what Friday feels like 😁🥳😎 The weekend is within spitting distance...and we have a new Jelly Jam on the way!!!

Great to see The Appleyard's announcement that we'll be sharing the stage with 80s legends The Christians at next year's Party In The Park on Saturday 3rd July 2021. We're already looking forward to closing the show!

Tickets available by calling (01795) 427852.

Louis - ‘Hold my Appletizer...’

#80smixtape

A date for your diaries ladies and gents...subject to Covid restrictions we'll be on Facebook on SATURDAY 21ST NOVEMBER from 9:30pm for an all 80s Jelly Livestream 😎

Who's joining us from their front room to celebrate the decade that taste forgot?!? 🥳

A year ago today, Chris played his first Jelly Show at the Swale Business Awards 2019. Here's a look back to the very first song that we all played together at his audition and a reminder that he was the right man for the job from day one 🙂

After discussing with our friends at The Appleyard, the difficult but correct decision has been taken to once again postpone The 80s Mixtape 3 Back To School. Given the large amount of people attending this sold out event, there is unfortunately not a way for it to currently go ahead that adheres to the Government Covid guidelines.

We’re gutted that we won’t be able to entertain you just yet, but please keep your tickets safe and school uniform or 80s fancy dress ironed and ready. The rescheduled date is 5th June 2021.

We promise that when we are able to, we’ll bring you an even bigger and better 80s experience.

This is difficult time for all of us, so (dependent on restrictions 😷) we hope to be able to announce an all 80s livestream where we can be together virtually if not in person.

Thanks for your support, patience and understanding – stay safe x

This NEW Jelly Jam is for all the cowboys and cowgirls amongst you...it's an acoustic take on a Bon Jovi classic with a blistering electric solo courtesy of Louis 😎

We'd love it of you could LIKE and COMMENT if this Jelly Jam makes you yearn for a shot of tequila in a Mexican taverna. Or, y'know...if you like the song 😂

They'll be more Jelly Jams and livestreams coming...until we can be together properly at a show. Stay safe and look after each other x

We wanted to take time out from our (Rule of Six 😁) rehearsal this evening to send out big love and thanks to EVERYONE who has followed us on this Facebook page! Next stop...5000 🥳 Thanks so much for your support - it means the world to us 😘

Big thanks to the very talented Charlie for sending us these awesome photos from our recent show at The Woodstock so we can share them with you 😁

Worried you've got a 'Dodgy' weekend ahead due to a lack of live music? We hope this is 'Good Enough' to see you through until we're all back out there raising merry hell once more*

'Been workin' so hard...' Although current circumstances might mean you can't be footloose this coming weekend, we'd like to think this video by Glen and Tracy from a couple of weeks ago will have you dancing and singing along 🙂

Stay safe and be home by ten! 😉

For those of you who couldn't make Drive In Groovy, here's our version of Teenage Dirtbag as awesomely captured by multiple cameras by Glen and Tracy - great job ! If you were there, thanks to the designated drivers 😉 Honk!

...or the show without Dave. Proving that you can be socially distanced and have fun at a gig, here's some photos that capture sharing the stage with Marvellous Mo and the Backline Ferrets at The Woodstock, Sittingbourne.

We knew Drive In Groovy at The Woodstock would be fun, but I don't think we'd realised how emotional we'd all feel seeing everyone (us included) having the good time that we maybe took for granted a little before. Massive thanks to the main man Mo who came up with the idea and made it happen and Marvellous Mo And The Back Line Ferrets who kickstarted the evening!

As ever, Triple A Events were the gold standard for staging, sound and lighting - thanks guys and such a pleasure to see you all again! AKON SECURITY made sure the whole event was Covid compliant and helped us prove a Drive In Show could be done and done safely!

Looking forward to seeing Glen and Tracy's photos and video - thanks for being part of an awesome event!

Bring on the next show...and next time we'll be a 5 piece again 😂
