Reviews of The Old Silhillians Rugby Club in Knowle,
The Old Silhillians Rugby Club venue information
Well now you can see the band behind these 60's classics The Ivy League perform these and many other songs in what promises to be a great night of music and comedy when they appear at a special one off concert promoted by Sunday Night Live on Sunday May 23rd in the intimate setting of the Old Silhillians Rugby Club, Knowle.
Since the mid sixties when The Ivy League first had their taste of pop chart success the band has gone from strength to strength. The line up features
Jon Brennan (Bass guitar, Vocals); Dave Buckley (Drums, Vocals) and Mike Brice (Guitar, Vocals).
Perry Ford was the only original member to keep the band together through the late 60’s, which is when Dave joined to add his unique falsetto voice and keep the sound alive and original. Dave and Jon kept The Ivy League going through the 70’s and beyond (with Perry’s blessing) at a time when most 60’s bands had faded away. They built the show in to one of the best cabaret acts in the country, starring at all the top venues of the time ~ The Night Out, Birmingham ~ Talk of the Town, London ~ Batley Variety Club ~ Wakefield Variety Club ~ The Bailey Circuit ~. They have won many awards such as Club Mirror “Comedy Vocal Group” of the year. This is not a tribute, but a genuine continuation over the last 40 years without break.
"Sunday Night Live" is a regular Sunday evening of live entertainment that has been running at the Old Sills on the second Sunday of every month since the mid 80's. The night was originally started by local comedian and playwright Malcolm Stent. It was then taken over by Birmingham music legend Mike Sheridan and his Nightriders and is now run by ex Nightrider drummer Keith Slater and his award winning party band Vivo.
