The Fourmost
Friday 20th May 2022
We are delighted to welcome The Fourmost to Reeth Memorial Hall for their Swaledale debut. The Fourmost were part of the 1960s Mersey Beat boom and came out of the Brian Epstein stable along with The Beatles, Billy J Kramer, Gerry and The Pacemakers, Cilla Black and others. They are best remembered for their 60s chart hits such as A Little Loving , Hello Little Girl, I’m In Love, Baby I Need Your Lovin' and Girls Girls Girls.
The Fourmost have been continually active since forming as the Four Jays in 1959. The personnel may have changed over the years but the sound and look of the band have remained the same. They are one of the most authentic 60s bands on the circuit today, from their Vox amps, Rickenbacker guitars and Ludwig drums down to their Italian-made slim-fitted suits and Cuban heel boots. Since the mid 80s they have enjoyed a golden era as part of the wider 60s revival scene and now appear throughout the UK and Europe playing at theatres, clubs and festivals to a diverse fan base.
Put on your dancing shoes or sit back and listen!
