Hear classics at Biggleswade club

Phil Haley and His Comments, the ultimate tribute to the sounds of Bill Haley and the Comets will be among the performers at the Biggles Rock and Roll Club on Friday (December 9).

There will also be tributes to Buddy Holly and The Beatles, courtesy of Dan Bond and Ollie Bond respectively.

The popular rock and roll night will take place at the Biggleswade United Working Men’s Club (BUWMC) and will also include music from Biggles FM DJ Jim Brady and guests.

This will not be the first time that Phil Haley and His Comments have played in Biggleswade.

The band also performed at the club two years ago.

The tribute band came together 12 years ago after Phil had been told time and again about his resemblance to the late Bill Haley.

He set about forming the band which is now made up of himself on guitars and vocals, Alan Paris on tenor sax, Martin Savage on double bass and Brian Nicholls on the drums.

Together the four members of the band began to create a unique style and sound.

They write their own rock and roll songs as well as covering some of the greatest numbers ever to be written and performed by Bill Haley and the Comets – plus other smash hits from the golden era.

The tribute act have toured extensively in the UK and throughout the world, including Germany, France, Holland, Scandinavia and Australia.

Tickets cost £10 in advance and £12 on the door and can be bought at the BUWMC in Church Street.

Children can also attend for half the price.
