We are a 5/6-piece Party Band with the main objective being to get people up on their feet dancing, with a repertoire of over 100 songs, built around Rock ‘n’ Roll Classics, and Classic Rock from the 60s, 70s and 80s. It includes many well-known Rock and Roll numbers from The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Elvis Presley, The Who, Spencer Davis Group, Creedence Clearwater Revival, The Eagles, Stevie Wonder, Chuck berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, The Doors, the Blues Brothers, Fleetwood Mac, Pink Floyd, Dr Feelgood, Rod Stewart and The Faces, Status Quo, The Hollies, Bryan Adams, Fleetwood Mac, Bruce Springsteen, Queen, and even some Glam Rock from David Bowie, T-Rex and The Sweet.
Although we don’t offer a DJ service, we can provide recorded music from any era, beforehand and also during the interval, through our PA system. This generally covers pretty well every requirement, and ensures that people can continue dancing if they choose to. We are happy to work within any timeframe but normally for an evening function we would arrive during the middle of the afternoon to set everything up, and conduct the sound check. Background music would be ready to go, at the touch of a button, and we would strike up the band as soon as you are ready.
We normally deliver 2 x 60 minute sets, with a 30 minute interval, and we include everything such as stage lighting, effects, and PA, and we have our own stage crew and sound engineer. We are entirely self-contained, requiring only a couple of 13 amp sockets within easy reach. All our equipment is EU compliant, and PAT tested, and we have Public Liability Insurance up to £10 million.

Our Team
THE BAND
Pete Frontman - Vocalist
Pete’s first foray into performing was with the Addams Family musical in 2015 which was his stage debut in Chester. A couple of local pub bands and some more musicals later led him to Revival in 2018. To date he has garnered a huge amount of experience fronting Revival with his first gig in a Blackpool Club in 2018 in front of 300+ people. Since then Pete has embraced Comedy (Dad Jokes a speciality!), Musicianship, singing, acting, and dancing and we are privileged to have him ‘Fronting’ the band.
Dave Lead Guitar and Vocals
A Merseysider by birth, Dave grew up with the Mersey Beat in his blood and The Beatles in his ears. Having taught himself to play guitar at a very early age, Dave went on to work with various professional bands playing music from cabaret to country, and anything in between, both on stage and in the studio. A change in personal circumstances led to Dave retiring from professional playing in 1995, but in 2011 he was tempted out of retirement to perform as part of a duo, and subsequently joined the appropriately named Revival.
Tom Guitar and Keys
Growing up in a talented musical family meant that Tom was surrounded by live music from an early age. Tom’s musical voyage started with his Grandfather’s ukulele banjo, when he performed at family parties; closely followed by the piano, and classical guitar. His first ‘paid’ jobs were as a Pub pianist in the oldest pub in Wales, which at that time was famous for it’s Saturday night singalongs. Real life kicked in for a while, but Fast-forward to 2010 when Tom once again picked up his guitar when asked to round up a few like-minded people to provide live music for a local event.
Salvo Bass Guitar
Salvo grew up surrounded by a musically talented family. He draws influences from the big rock legends of the 70s and 80s. He started playing the drums but he soon switched to bass and it all paid off. He soon became part of a successful duo before joining Revival.
Steve Percussion
Having been entranced by the sound of drums since a teenager, Steve’s passion for the instrument is still as strong as ever. Graduating from playing cover songs in several school and college bands, to leading the Worcester power-pop movement of the early 1990s with AFM, Steve has continued to play both original songs and a range of covers prior to joining Revival. He is an advocate of the ‘Moeller motion’ and attributes much of his style to the late great Jim Chapin (Drummers – look him up!) and can be seen switching between traditional and matched grip to suit the needs of the song.
Rich Sound Tech / Stage Manager
Growing up in the countryside there were few options for getting involved in live music, but his own sister joined a local Metal band on vocals and his passion for the music industry grew from there. With a Masters in Music Production and two decades of experience, Rich went on to work with various bands and UK tours on stage and behind the sound desk.

Absolutely brilliant
We dealt with Tom from the band, he was friendly and approachable, he stayed in contact right up to our wedding reception and offered to learn any important music tracks we may have wanted. They played a rock near roll set and had EVERYONE up and dancing. Thanks Tom and the rest of the guys you made our wedding reception very very memorable. We would highly recommend the Revival band UK for your event. They were amazing and very professional. Once again thank you guys!

Fantastic service and communication.
Logistically, to book and set up a five piece band and to pull out such a great performance, was fantastic. The repertoire of songs sung went down really well with us oldies and would recommend booking this band to any gathering.
