Westzone
A mighty cheer must greet the return of "Westzone". The lads have reformed especially for the Withernsea Summertime Special and the word on the street is that they love to play to the people of Withernsea and surrounding areas, thats why they agreed to get together once again for us, and for you! Hopefully they will give us a show that gives the young, and not so young an experience that made them so popular in the first place. Welcome Back!!!!!

These guys have the experience and the quality to re-create the swinging sound of the 50's/60's and probably one of the main reasons they have such a cult following, they make it all look so easy!
