With six gold records under their belt and success rivalling The Beatles, Grammy Award winning Californian Gary Puckett and the Union Gap held precedence as one of the most successful pop groups of the sixties. Beginning as The Outcasts in the early sixties with relatively little success, they settled on their current name under the management of Dick Badger and returned with a rejuvenated look and sound. Using Union Army Civil war outfits as a gimmick, the band signed with Columbia Records and began storming their way into the charts. The single ‘Young Girl’ released in 1968, went straight in at number two in the American charts whilst also securing them their first UK number one. With Gary Puckett’s distinctive vocals leading their way with their catchy power ballads, the band continued their successes performing at the White House for Prince Charles and touring the world. After a brief break where Puckett embarked on a solo career during the seventies, the band reunited in 2010. With an updated costume change and the ever memorable performances, the band continue to woo audiences taking them on a trip down memory lane. Puckett’s vocals are stronger than ever as he wavers through hits like ‘Woman Woman’ and ‘Keep the Customer Satisfied’ with the sweetest of harmonies making it a night to remember.
