The Retrosettes are the band guaranteed to put a huge smile on every audience member’s face and likely get you up and dancing from the offset.
The Retrosettes are a vintage styled band from Manchester, UK and have been making music together for over 10 years. Originally starting out as a Jazz band, they are now finishing off their second album of original music after a varied and unique journey in the music industry over the last decade. The band’s has since been perfecting their amazing original project, The Horse Puppets, which has gained a large and hugely loyal fanbase. It’s no wonder, these musicians are true masters of their craft who produce a gorgeous sound like no other. You can imagine what happens when they turn their hand to some pop hits…
The band’s repertoire is VAST. Audiences of any age are going to absolutely love the band’s take on what is likely one your favourite songs. From 50’s Rock ’n’ Roll (Elvis, Johnny Cash, Ray Charles…), to 60’s Pop and Soul (Marvin Gaye, The Beach Boys, The Beatles…), to 70’s and 80’s all-time bangers (Toto (yep, you know the one), Madness, Fleetwood Mac, The Eurythmics…), to hits from the 90’s to the present day… This band literally has it all. The vast repertoire is certainly be no means just on paper, each and every band member’s raw talent, musicianship, and showmanship is second to none. When the night is over, you’ll be as in love as The Retrosettes as we were the first time we met them.

We’re very excited to be welcoming the fantastic Taylor Paisley-French to the club for his debut Matt & Phred’s gig - let’s show him some love!
We first met Taylor during our 2020 “Lockdown Live” live streams, when he performed two live streams from home for a large and complementary online audience. We absolutely loved Taylor’s sound and style from the offset, and knew we’d see him on stage at the club before too long.
London-born pop artist and pianist Taylor Paisley-French, has carved his name into the pop music scene with sounds influenced by jazz, blues and soul.
Taylor's reputation in the music industry has seen him working alongside artists such as, Jamie Cullum, Gil Scott-Heron’s band: The Revolution Will Be Live as well as Sean McGinty at BBC Lancashire and Nigel Williams at Jazz FM.
With cinematic elements featured throughout his piano based catalogue, and an intense focus on lyrical content, Taylor's repertoire is sure to deliver an eclectic musical experience.
