Anthony fronts the band, plays ukulele and sings in a variety of styles - from 1920's crooner, to Noël Coward and even George Formby! His witty and humorous announcing, together with his suave and rather unusual, debonair appearance, enliven proceedings wherever the band appears. He has also worked with The Temperance Seven and on the Orient Express.

Willie is featured on clarinet, alto sax, violin and penny whistle. A brilliant and versatile musician and arranger, he is also a member of the famous Temperance Seven, and in the past will be remembered for his work with the Vintage Syncopators and Laughing Stock.

John is our cornet player. He has played with a number of Manchester jazz bands, including Red River, then moved to London and played professionally with the Back O' Town Syncopators for three years. On returning to the North West he joined the Fairey Engineering Band, then the Vintage Syncopators. He has been with the famous Temperance Seven for many years, and joined Café Society in 2002.

George is our anchorman on Bflat Sousaphone and string bass. He brings a wealth of experience, after playing with a large variety of bands in the North West, West Yorkshire and the Isle of Man. As George Allen, he became the bandleader at the Keirby Hotel, Burnley, followed by 18 years as MD at the Clayton Lodge Hotel, Newcastle-under-Lyme. Among the many musicians who played in this band were Peter Chell, Nat. Whitworth, Art Lester and Andy Prior. In recent years he has worked with Pat Nash and the Wally MacKenzie Orchestra, and is now back to his roots with Café Society. On his regular visits to Delaware, USA, he plays tuba with the UUpbeats Jazz Band.
