Jubilee Joy!
We are thrilled to announce that we will be performing live at the Queen's offical Jubilee Family Festival in Hyde Park on 2nd & 3rd June. Hosted by Mylene Klass and John Culshaw, we'll have the honour of performing alongside the cast of Strictly Come Dancing and The London African Gospel Choir plus many more fantastic acts. With a 70 minute orchestral celebration of the best loved Disney songs, big screen footage of Epsom Derby Day and the Thames Diamond Pageant, plus street performers, RAF Dog Displays and marching bands, it is an absolutely unmissable event... not least because The Rockabellas are now on the bill!!

Mum's The Word!
It's fair to say that being a mum is one of the hardest yet most rewarding jobs a woman can ever undertake. With 4 children between us, we should know! And as we smile endearingly at the homemade greeting card with slightly too much copydex, or pretend to enjoy the sticky cupcake lovingly baked at nursery by someone else's child, let us raise a glass to all those lovely ladies who are or have a fabulous mum. Today is your day! xxx
GREAT Malvern!

The AM after the night before!
Wow, what a wonderful gig last night, performing to over 1000 special guests from the automobile industry as they gathered at Birmingham's ICC for the annual AM Awards.

Va Va Voom indeed!

One 'Elle' of an Accolade!
We are thrilled to have recently worked with Elle's Wedding Planner of the Year, Mark Niemierko, who reviewed us in national magazine Brides as "a 1940’s female trio act singing everything from Candyman to Beyonce’s Crazy In Love. Without doubt, the highlight of the night." Watch this space for photos of us at Niemierko's stunning soiree!
