They will include many of their long list of successes such as Sweets For My Sweet, Sugar & Spice, Needles & Pins, What Have They Done To The Rain? Love Potion Number 9, Don`t Throw Your Love Away, and so many more. Officially named last year as the longest serving pop group in British history they have toured continually over 67 years since choosing the title of the classic 1957 John Wayne movie as a name for their skiffle group. In 1963 they shot to number one in the UK charts with their first single Sweets For My Sweet and the rest is history.
