Presented by The Piccadilly Revellers (formally 78rpm)

Michael Law brings his brand-new Piccadilly Revellers to Louth for the very first time!

Drawn from the ranks of Michael’s world-famous Piccadilly Dance Orchestra, the six musicians of The Piccadilly Revellers will entertain you with the wonderfully jazzy and sophisticated popular music of the 1920s, 30s and 40s – from Gershwin and Cole Porter to Noel Coward.

Vocalist Catherine Sykes joins Michael, along with pianist Colin Good, Sandy Burnett on double-bass, legendary jazz saxophonist Robert Fowler and Ben Twyford on drums.
