About the Knottleys
We are a five piece covers band based in Houghton Cambridgeshire.
We covers songs from the 60’s, up to the present. With amazing harmonies and up beat songs that you will have not heard in a while, will bring you back to your youth and get you singing and dancing.
We like playing pub gigs, festivals, private functions, weddings and we’ve even played a funeral!

The things people say
Don’t take our word for it – here’s what our audience says:
I can honestly say that the Knottleys are a class act! A very friendly group of superb musicians at the top of their game who love nothing better than sharing an evening of top class entertainment with you where they’ll play their heart and soul out with hours of fabulous classic songs that everyone knows so well. Engagement with their audience ensures a very personal touch with much fun, laughter and banter throughout their gigs not to mention the odd dance / sing-a-long!!! I booked the Knottleys for our company reunion event and they delivered so much more than I could have wished for. That personal touch meant everything and ensured that all my guests will remember that evening for a very long time! I can’t recommend The Knottleys enough”
Pete Clark
Monarch Reunion
My Dad celebrated his 100th birthday recently. We organised a party for him inviting 100 or so family and close friends to Kenilworth Cricket Club…
I am delighted to say that we asked the Knottleys to play for us throughout the afternoon and evening. The music was brilliant and they were a massive contribution to the enjoyment and success of the day. They were so understanding of when to play and that flexibility made the whole experience relaxed, fun and enjoyable. The age of the partygoers ranged from 1 to 100 and the choice of music was perfect, as was the delivery… We will always be grateful too for a special 15 minute montage of WWII songs that the Knottleys had out together and rehearsed especially for Dad.
Thank you again
