In the spring of 2007 Caroline 199 was born. The band is made up of three people who shared a passion for 60s music and particularly Pirate Radio. Pretty soon the band began appearing at the world famous Cavern Club in Liverpool and have now become one of the featured resident acts appearing over 80 times to date.
As time progressed the lads wanted to bring Pirate Radio to the public and created the concept of performing a live radio broadcast. This was to be presented with the original jingles, adverts and the DJ parts played by the members of the band. As an addition to the show and due to the complexities of the 60s arrangements, the lads drafted in one of the best and well known keyboard players in the county, Tony Cook.
The band contacted Trevor Dann from the Radio Academy after attending an offshore radio convention in London. At the convention, the band were astounded at the multi-media presentations that were shown on the day, and so asked Trevor if he knew who organised the event. Trevor put us in touch with two of the most amazing people we have ever met... Chris and Mary Payne from Radio London.
We have developed a strong friendship with Chris and Mary and as a result we have collectively put together the most unique 60s show around.
The multi-media narration is by one of the original DJ’s Mr Roger ‘Twiggy’ Day and produced by Chris & Mary Payne giving the viewer the information of how the fashion, music, and culture of the 60s would not have been here today without BIG L and RADIO CAROLINE.
You can enjoy a Pirate Radio broadcast live in 3D, so jump aboard and see and hear the CAROLINE 199 SHOW..... It's great to have you along.
