In 1962 they auditioned for Decca Records, the very same week as The Beatles. Decca signed The Tremeloes to a 3 year deal and turned The Beatles down (this is a fact that is still reported in all Beatles biographies). Ironically, they shared the Top 3 and the same song when The Tremeloes had their first hit with Twist And Shout. They also appeared on the same bill with The Beatles on several occasions!

Following their first hit came 7 more major chart achievements including; Do You Love Me, Someone, Someone, and Candy Man. After which they decided, mainly through musical differences, to part company with front man Brian Poole and work as a 4 piece. The band went on to score a further 19 hits to achieve a staggering 27 Hit Records! The Tremeloes name became known throughout the world and having appeared at every major venue in the world, the bank opened up many new territories for British talent.

In their time, The Tremeloes have appeared with all the greats including, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who, Jimi Hendrix and many more of whom they count as friends today. Elton John still attends the band’s shows whenever he can.

The Tremeloes’ “live” performing success must certainly be credited to the sound created by professional musicians who have “done their time” to enable them to play rock music as only a 50s or 60s band can and to appeal to an audience of all age groups as they most certainly do, world-wide!

The Tremeloes line-up is complete and has brought their unique sound into the new millennium, performing to hundreds of thousands of people every year all over the world!
