About / Biography

Our name is The Old Fashioned and we are a live acoustic covers Duo from Dartford. We cover all genres of music from the '60s to the present day with our own blues/Folk style twist!

We have been full-time musicians for 7 years now and have played some notorious venues all over the UK. Also, we have experience living abroad and playing music overseas in a five-star hotel called The Blue Lagoon Village - Kos.

We would love to come and put on a show at your venue and wondered if this is something you would be interested in? We definitely think our style, professionalism of our sound and appearance suits your venue down to a Tee.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever played at?

The best gig we have done as an acoustic duo is a wedding at a huge manor house to a few hundred guests!
The best Venue would be either the Camden Assembly or O2 Islington for name.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

The artists are heavily influenced by Paolo Nutini, Richard Ashcroft, Ray LaMontagne, Kings of Leon, Jack White and many more! Paolo Nutini is also my fav artist. The greatest song of all time is Bittersweet Symphony just for Nostalgia and British Culture.


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

Liam (Lead Singer) started his musical journey in Greece with his first gig being a 6-month contract in a hotel. From there, he has spent the last 7 years gigging all over the UK with his touring Original rock band (Penny Skint).

We've performed at 500+ gigs, not including the busking all over the UK and featuring on BBC Introducing.


What's your favourite type of event to play at?

ANY - we cater to every event!


Why Do you think Music is important?

Music is more important than sometimes made out to be and adds more value to people than sometimes realised.

Music is important to us because it creates moments and memories and that's the most important thing we have in life! That's what we were put on this earth to do.
