Atlantis is a well established group of singers/musicians who cover the really good popular classic hits from the last 5 decades and today. With such broad repertoire, including hits by established artists such as Cliff Richard, Elvis Presley, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Buddy Holly, Fleetwood Mac, general 50’s and 60’s Rock n Roll, Neil Diamond, The Carpenters, Abba, Oasis, Wet Wet Wet, Boyzone, and recent artists, for example KT Tunstall and Amy McDonald. Atlantis can also include a wide selection of country, pop, folk, etc. and the band is very happy to tailor its set lists to satisfy the requirements of any event. It is also very likely that a requested song for a special occasion can be included (such as a ‘first dance’ for a wedding).

During the last year or so, Atlantis has performed at many public events including two more sell-out concerts of their own at The Epsom Playhouse Myers Studio Theatre and appeared on the main stage at the venue alongside world renowned opera singer, Juliette Pochin at the Rotary Club of Ewell’s ‘Music For Pleasure’ variety show. The band performed with Ray Stiles of The Hollies at Ewell’s ‘Herald of Spring’ event and Ray also joined their open air concert at the village’s Summer Street Party. Atlantis has filled the Mezz Bar in Leatherhead, performed at the Leatherhead Theatre Drama Festival in the company of Sir Michael Caine, headlined at Epsom’s Picnic In the Park, Derby and Autumn Festivals, entertained shoppers several times in The Mall Ashley and played to an audience of thousands at the big Epsom town Christmas lights switch on celebrations beside the landmark Clock Tower in the main square. Other appearances included The Swan Centre for Leatherhead’s Christmas Lights Festival and at the same location for Red Nose Day/Comic Relief when the group had shoppers dancing around their carrier bags in the precinct! The band performed in Epsom’s market place again for Age Concern’s anniversary promotion day.

At the end of 2006, ATLANTIS was honoured to be endorsed by the Surrey Federation of WI’s and have each year since been added to their Year Book with recommendation – following a very rigorous audition and selection process! The band has as a result been hired to perform numerous times at WI meetings and socials.

On Thursday, 19th April, 2007, Atlantis was privileged to be invited to attend the Borough of Epsom and Ewell's annual Voluntary Service Awards ceremony at the Town Hall and were truly delighted to be presented with one of these very special awards by the borough's then Mayor, Cllr. David Wood. They were nominated by The Epsom Playhouse for the group’s contribution to fund raising and the support of many charity events and organisations at the venue and throughout the borough, plus their continued work with the elderly.

Atlantis has made two acoustic performances on BBC Southern Counties Radio, including a one hour long interview and performance slot on the Sylvie Blackmore Sunday Afternoon Show. The group performed 6 songs and were promptly invited back for the Christmas show for a festive performance of 4 more songs. The group put together a local teenage choir to back them.

In the Spring, Atlantis performed again at Ewell Village’s popular annual Herald of Spring event at Bourne Hall and they were especially chosen to entertain the Mayor of Epsom and Ewell, Cllr. Jean Steer and her guests, at her Mayoral Dinner at the same venue that weekend.

A seventh ‘sold out’ concert at The Epsom Playhouse Myers Studio Theatre took place early summer. The band had the audience on their feet and literally dancing in the aisles with their performance of the most popular hits from the last five decades. The concert really rocked and a number of the audience who’d been in to see the production of Oliver! in the main theatre stage were caught trying to gatecrash the Myers Studio after that performance had finished to join in the fun with Atlantis!

In June, the group also appeared at the hugely popular and extremely well attended annual Ashtead Village Day charity event (more than 22,000 visitors attended) and have already been booked to perform at the next one!

Recently, Atlantis has ventured into performances at ‘select’ public houses for the first time, including The Chequers pub in Walton on the Hill, The White Horse Pub in Epsom, The Cock Horse in Headley and The Game Cock in Worcester Park. They were resounding successes and repeat bookings will follow.

Atlantis still finds time to fit in many corporate, private and charity performances for all kinds of functions, including dinner dances, weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, plus Christmas, Easter and summer parties and barbecues – in locations as diverse as theatres, front rooms, private gardens, municipal parks, marquees, town squares and high streets, also restaurants, pubs, golf and country clubs, residential homes for the elderly and hospitals.

Potential clients are more than welcome to see the band in rehearsal at their studio in Kingswood, Surrey by arrangement. Excellent references can be supplied on request.
