Premier band with a great full sound & sound engineer!
Introducing Helter Skelter, a 4-piece wedding / function band based in West Yorkshire.
They can perform many styles of music, from the 60's classics to present day chart hits with a healthy dose of classic rock in the mix. Their tight performance and professional sound is a result of many years of experience in the live music industry.
Brilliant setlists from 60s to 00s performed with energy and passion!
Helter Skelter are:
Graeme Cox - Lead vocals and acoustic and electric guitars
Simon Partridge - Lead guitar and backing vocals
Carl Fairhurst - Electric Bass
Robert Elkin - Drums and Djembe
The band members have played in a number of different bands over the last 15 years and have a combined history of 1000s of shows before getting together to form Helter Skelter. Their own style and personality is apparent throughout their show resulting in an unforgettable night for every audience.
Young enough to perform with intense energy whilst having years of experience...
Helter Skelter are a serious driving force in the party band world. With their own light show and lighting engineer, flexible PA system and professional sound crew the band can cater for all types of events, from function room to 5000 capacity hall. Just let them know your requirements and they will ensure your event is totally and utterly unforgettable.
Their approach is that of total customer service. They will work with you / your event planner in the months running up to your event to ensure the music reflects your personal tastes and the feel / theme of your occasion.
As well as being a driving force in the party band world they have also worked with major international artists such as T Rex, The Sweet, Whole Lotta Led (endorsed by Jimmy Page) and Pure Purple.
Top quality equipment used!
Helter Skelter also offer a 'song request service' should a couple (or any of our clients) wish to have a specific song played on their special day (first dance for example). They are more than happy to add it to their set at no extra charge (if given adequate notice).
