Showaddywaddy
The Greatest Rock & Roll Band In The World' is a bold statement, but Showaddywaddy have lived up to that title for the last 5 decades!
Formed in Leicester in 1973 from an amalgamation of several local bands, Showaddywaddy have gone on to sell more than 20 million records and tour all four corners of the globe.
They have long been established as Europe's most successful ever exponents of retro-inspired rock'n'roll. The record simply speaks for itself!
23 Top 40 hit singles, including 10 Top 5 hits Under The Moon of Love, When, You Got What It Takes, 3 Steps To Heaven, Hey Rock & Roll and many more.
15 massive selling albums (including the Christmas number 1 in 1978)
An incredible live show – acclaimed the world over!
In excess of 50 Top of the Pops performances, and countless industry awards!
Royal Variety performances (one to the delight of the Queen Mother – who actually requested to meet the band post-performance)
Bill toppers at the prestigious Golden Orpheus World Music Festival before a staggering TV audience of 300 million people – making history in the process by becoming the first western-world band to be screened live in Communist Cuba!
As if the band's amazing success through four decades were not enough, the demand for these legendary performers is as strong as ever – surely a testament to their outstanding reputation as live artists.
