They can be dressed in civilian clothing or in full WWII Army and RAF uniforms. This quartet provide audiences with an authentic experience of the music of the period.
One thing is guaranteed, whatever they sing, they always enjoy it; and that means you'll enjoy it too. From ballads to comedy numbers, from patriotic to authentic.

We give you a bespoke price based on the exact location of your event. The pricing below is based on a central location for your area so you have an idea of what your price will be. The exact price will be given in the booking process after you’ve provided the location details.
Are you able to learn requests and at what extra charge?
We can re-work a song to incorporate slightly different words or to incorporate someones name, a company name or a product and this starts from £10 dependent on rehearsal times required. We may be able to learn a specific song if the arrangement is available. 8 weeks notice is required as we need time to purchase the song (Usually from USA) and then to learn it. Alternatively, we can get a song arranged in the barbershop style and learn it. For costs, please speak to your Warble agent.
