The Sunsets - Wedding Band Wales

It started back in ****, when ** year old Dave "Batman" Goddard started to play bass with a couple of friends. The Backbeats, as they were known, played local clubs in South Wales alongside, among others, Tommy Scott & The Senators – better known now as Tom Jones!

A young fan often in the front row when they played, was sometimes invited on stage to sing with them. By ****, that fan had become Shakin' Stevens, and the nucleus of the Backbeats had become The Sunsets. During the next ten years they toured extensively in the U.K. and Europe and had appearances on T.V. and radio.

It was with sadness – and best wishes – that the band watched Shaky leave to appear as Elvis in Jack Good's West End show of the same name. The Sunsets then went solo. Ever since then, they have performed continually, delighting fans in the UK, Europe and Australia.

Over the years, the band has shared stages with the likes of the Rolling Stones and Carl Perkins – and in fact, with more Rock n' Roll icons than they care to remember. With over ** years of continuous regular performing, The Sunsets deliver a memorable and exciting rock n' roll experience.
