ABOUT US
Alive and Kicking is a high quality 4 piece covers band that play a range of rock, pop and dance music from the 1950s to the present day, which can be tailored to the requirements of each client.
Alive and Kicking have gained a reputation as an exciting, entertaining and versatile band, performing at various types of functions and events including wedding and birthday parties, as well as other anniversaries and celebrations. We have also gigged at a range of pubs and clubs. The members of the band have all been playing for a good number of years and as a result bring that extra level of professionalism and maturity to their performance.
Our repertoire is extensive and we are always prepared to learn and perform songs that aren't in our current listing, provided we are given enough notice. As this would involve extra rehearsal time, there would necessarily be an agreed addition to the fee.
We have our own PA and lighting systems and can offer a limited DJ service as part of the package.
We are based in Southampton but will travel a reasonable distance to perform.

"We booked Alive and Kicking earlier in the year 2019 and they were great, so we decided to book them for our New Year s Eve party. They played a great variety of songs that went down a storm during the evening. Everyone had a fantastic time and were dancing the night away. Thanks Again." Steve

"Alive and Kicking were just perfect for our event the other night. They were professional, accomplished and most of all a lot of fun. They were happy to take requests for their set list beforehand and even on the night! We were so happy that they’d learned a medley just for our event! They partook in the theme which added to the ambience of the event and I could not recommend them enough for all occasions in the future." Oliver

"Just fabulous! What a night! The set list was brilliant. I went through the songs on here and opted for identifying the ones I didn’t want, there wasn’t many. Asked for a few to be on the list and then let the band decide. I was not disappointed. The set was perfect, the sound amazing and everyone had a great time. Thank you so much for adding that extra sparkle to the party." Karin

"I came across Alive and Kicking on the site, I liked the video and their song list, so I thought I'd book them for New Year's Eve 2019. I had a date spare for August, so I thought it would be good to get them to play a date before New Year. After a few emails back and forth to Jan, and speaking to Rich, we were all looking forward to them playing at Calmore Community Centre. They were very professional on arrival and setting up, and have to say they went down a storm. A fantastic variety of songs from most eras and all sounded great. I'm very glad we have them for New Year's Eve, and we all can't wait to see them again." Steve

"These guys (and lady) did an absolutely amazing job for us. For what was a very personal family event they went to extra lengths to make it an even more memorable personal event. I’ve booked numerous bands previously for events but Alive and Kicking delivered that extra bit of quality. Thanks."

"Thanks for a great night. The band were extremely good and it made our wedding day very special. They played a range of different types of songs, which meant that our guests of all ages really enjoyed dancing to the music. The band were very professional, making sure that they didn't get in the way while setting up and checking on the types of songs we wanted them to play." Shirley
