The North East's finest party band
The music
We pride ourselves on the diversity and wide appeal of the music we perform. The five band-members are all highly-accomplished musicians who enjoy playing live, and Smidge our lead-vocalist will make sure the evening flows with a few bad hugely amusing jokes! The set-list is always changing, but here's a sample of what you might expect at a Spangler event:
