Description

A Shadows Tribute Band and more!
Authentic Shadows classics, hits from the 50's 60's and Rock'nRoll music
The Runaways are constantly striving to produce the highest quality sound and still rehearse routinely to perfect regular numbers and learn new ones to extend their already extensive repertoire. They also pay attention to the visual aspects of their performances and are always immaculate in their suits and are memorable for their striking bright red guitars and that Hank twang!

Biography

Although they have worked with members of The Shadows and are renowned for the authenticity of their production of The Shadows' numbers, The Runaways are far more than a Shadows tribute band. With the vast experience and individual talents of each member and their extensive repertoire of classic vocal and also known vocal numbers played instrumentally with their own twist on it, The Runaways produce a performance tailored to each venue and event and often receive standing ovations and unending demands for encores and invites back to the venues!

The Runaways - The Shadows Tribute Band - Dartford, South East Event Location: Folkestone Event Type: Folkestone Festivals Bandstand 13th July 2019

We had the Runaways on the Folkestone Bandstand in July 2019 - they were absolutely fantastic! A great sound outdoors and good blend of music which our audience adored. We have now booked them again for our big weekend event celebrating the Queen's Platinum Jubilee in early June. Cannot wait to hear them again. Really pro-active and engage with the audience of all ages.
