The Temperance Seven promise to do things their way

The Temperance Seven promise to provide a night of great tunes and unique humour when they perform in Croydon.

Who would have predicted a band which topped the charts back in 1961 with a song and style already 40 years out of date, would still be around playing the same style of music now eight years out of date.

Although the original members have long ceased to appear with the band, the current members have carried on the imitable sound, hilarious tomfoolery and the sartorial elegance of the band.

Whichever chart favourites you fancy- be it "You're Driving Me Crazy','Home in Pasadena' or 'Hard Hearted Hannah' The Temperance Seven will play it for you.

Lead by Captain Chris Buckley on the Sousaphone, the band will play what they like in the way they like.
