A LOCAL band is set to headline its own show dedicated to the 60s this summer. 

Five-piece group The Zoots are fronted and managed by former Chiseldon resident Jamie Goddard, and they're bringing a Sound of the 60s show to Swindon Arts Centre in July.

The group have performed in more than 35 countries and at many venues including the London Palladium, Goodwood Festival, Stamford Bridge and Old Trafford.

The band will celebrate the music of Elvis Presley, The Searchers, the Rolling Stones, Dusty Springfield and The Beatles in their first show in the town.

Last year the Corporate Live Wire Innovation and Excellence awards presented the group with the 2022 band of the year award and in 2018 the group received the UK best pop music cover band award at the Global Entertainment Awards.

The Stage said: "The Zoots are the kind of talented, young band it's impossible not to like, totally confident in their ability to entertain."

Sounds of the 60s takes place at Swindon Arts Centre at 7.30pm on June 9.
