The Fourmost

Short Description

The Fourmost are one of the most authentic 1960s bands currently on the circuit today, from their Vox amps down to their Cuban Heeled boots.

The Fourmost had its roots steeped in the eclectic 1960s Mersey beat boom and was part of the Brian Epstein stable along with The Beatles, Billy J Kramer, Gerry and The Pacemakers, Cilla Black and others. The band has evolved from enjoying 1960’s chart hits such as Hello Little Girl (no.9) and A Little Loving (no.6) and less popular songs as I’m In Love (17), Baby I Need Your Lovin (24), Girls Girls Girls (33) and a cover of George Formby’s Auntie Maggie’s Remedy which failed to chart in the UK. During the 1970s and the early 1980s like many of its peers, The Fourmost played mainly on the cabaret circuit as it struggled to compete for appeal with disco, funk, glam rock and punk. Since the mid 1980s The Fourmost has enjoyed a golden era as part of the wider 1960s revival scene and now appear throughout the UK and Europe playing on theater tours, at holiday parks, 60s festivals and cruises to a diverse fan base. In 2022 the Fourmost head over to Denmark for 5 shows before embarking for Winnipeg, Canada for several shows in preparation for a 4 week tour in 2023 for the biggest ever live music festival to be hosted in Canada. The Fourmost have been continually active since forming as the Four Jays in 1959, the personal may have changed over the years but the sound and look of the band have remained the same. The Fourmost are one of the most authentic 1960s bands currently on the circuit today, from their Vox amps, Rickenbacker guitars and Ludwig drums down to their Italian made slim-fitted suits and Cuban heel boots.

Just had our wedding reception on Friday 9th September and the Fourmost played for our main event! Fantastic band and lovely to work with. Very genuine and would highly recommend for any suitable occasion. We had a 50s/60s themed wedding and the lads were just perfect. 10/10 and beyond! Thank you for a memorable night we will talk about for years to come fondly.
