The Swell Sisters, Sweethearts of the 60s
Based in Leichhardt
About this act
Three voices, GoGo boots and beehives, singing the girl groups of the 1960s. The Swell Sisters work through The Shirelles, Dusty Springfield, Dionne Warwick, Tina Turner, Lesley Gore, Connie Francis, Cilla Black and Petula Clark, stitched together with stories about love and lust that get a laugh. It works as a dinner show, or as a straight dance set, or a mix of both. There's a live band version and a backing track version with a big audio visual presentation. They need three radio mics and a vocal PA with staging and lighting, though for anything under 100 guests they can bring their own sound. Sydney based and fully insured.
