Spy
Candy - Party & Function Band
- Biography
Spy Candy are 2 girls and 4 guys. A fun loving
party band that delivers a high quality and
entertaining show. Music ranges from Beyonce to
Jackson Five, from the Bee Gees to Robbie
Williams.
For several years Spy Candy has been playing at
corporate and private functions, clubs and
festivals. With audiences from just hundreds to
many thousands all over the UK and abroad. Very
popular at corporate events, holiday parks,
military bases, universities, aboard ferries,
weddings and clubs and have played at almost all
the major hotel groups. With a host of excellent
testimonials to their name they are a six piece
100% live band that really entertains.
The
Costumes Costumes are from the Austin Powers and
James Bond movies. The band can use more
conventional stagewear on request. Based in the
North West of England, they perform all over the
UK as well as abroad.
They are fully self-contained and require only
standard power points. The Light Show they
provide can include smoke (specially fire alarm
compatible!) - all optional to suit the venue
and the audience.
History All of the guys and gals in the band
have been playing in working bands for many
years. Dave ("Fat B*stard/Charlie") has been
playing in bands since the 60's, and appeared on
Granada TV with his band in 1968. He also taught
the younger ones all he knows - which took about
10 minutes. Lynn ("Harmony") has been playing
the bass since she was 9 years old and appeared
on National TV in New Faces, along with her
brother Dave ("Austin") in the same band. Dave
was also an original member of the boyband Our
Kid who had a number 2 hit in 1976 with "You
Just Might See Me Cry" and both Lynn and Dave
have been in bands with Ian McNabb (Icicle
Works) and Chris Sharrock (now Robbie Williams'
drummer). Matt ("James Bond") was drummer in the
resident band at Liverpool's Cavern Club for 6
years. He's played percussion in War of the
Worlds with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic,
and has played in bands for Michelle Gayle and
Rose Royce, as well as supporting acts such as
the Average White Band, Wishbone Ash and Atomic
Kitten. He is also one the three songwriters of
the Liverpool 08 new anthem for Capital of
Culture. Pete ("Dr Evil") has been playing
keyboards since he was 7 and has a BTEC in
Performing Arts. He played in the Abba Mania
theatre show at venues such as the Liverpool
Empire and Manchester Opera House. Amanda
("Melody") has been singing in bands for over 15
years, and has toured Europe as a professional
singer. She's sung on Sky TV and been on Des
O'Connor's Pot of Gold talent show.

Spy Candy are a perfect band for your James Bond
party or 007 themed event. The theme songs from
the James Bond movies are magnificent and
memorable, and great to set the mood when played
throughout dinner for example. But, they don't
provide an ideal choice for a band to play if
you are looking for a dancing/party atmosphere
later. Our broad Spy Movie approach - covering
James Bond, Austin Powers, Mission Impossible
and Charlie's Angels - fits in perfectly, along
with more specific things such as opening with
Paul McCartney's Live & Let Die, an up tempo
version of the 007 guitar riff theme.
Can you tell the difference in costumes between
the evil villain Blofeld in You Only Live Twice
and Dr Evil from Austin Powers? - complete with
identical cat!
To make your James Bond event go with a bang -
