Bognorphenia fundraiser profits supporting the local community young people families and children.
The Lambrettas supporting Bognorphenia FT DJs Terry Nicholas,Nic Dunnaway, Keith Robinson, Dennis HydeThe Lambrettas came into being in the late 70s. Doug Sanders and Jez Bird were playing in a band called Shakedown. They were looking for direction in keeping with their musical tastes, so split from Shakedown to start something new. Both could sing and play guitar and set about writing. They were soon joined by drummer Paul Wincer and bassist Mark Ellis. Doug says: “There were only a few Mods locally in Brighton and Hastings and we had no idea there would be a revival on the scale that it grew into. That’s when we decided to call the band The Lambrettas to make it as obvious as possible, so that people would know what we were about.”
Their first gig was on Hastings Pier with 4 other bands, and promoter Peter Haines offered them management. After a few months of gigs they were signed to Elton John’s Rocket Records and released their first single Go Steady. This got them some airplay and soon they were gigging more regularly. The mod revival had now grown, and clothes that they used to fight for in the charity shops were now on sale in the High Street. Their second single was Poison Ivy. Soon after, their album Beat Boys in the Jet Age was released.
