The aim of the 50s & 60s music group is to introduce and play recordings from the golden age of popular music. Besides playing the hit tunes that we all remember, new and different songs and artists are introduced from this period so that members can discover the many hidden gems to be found.
Members are also treated to information about popular culture of the day as well as information about the singers and their songs.
We have now been running for over ten years and have a current membership of seventy spread over the two groups. The same presentation is given at both venues.
Why not join us for an afternoon of musical memories and nostalgia.
Following the easing of COVID restrictions the two groups will meet as follows:
The Thursday Group will meet on 7nd October
The Monday Group will meet on 4th October
On both these dates we will be listening to the music of US and UK male singers with the presentations including Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Nat King Cole, and Matt Monro.
Future presentations will feature The Everly Brothers, The Rolling Stones and Little Richard.
