The Kingsmen support Mayflower 400 Celebrations

The Kingsmen (25 in number) were invited to sing at the opening event at Paddington Station for the Mayflower 400 celebrations sponsored by Plymouth City Council in support of the Devon & Cornwall Rail Partnership.


The year long programme involving Britain, Holland and the USA is for the 400th Anniversary of the Pilgrim Fathers setting sail from Plymouth Barbican in 1620 on board the Mayflower.


It proved to be a fantastic day with the guys arriving at Paddington and taking time for a photo shoot with Paddington Bear on Platform 1.

They sang three spots on the hour until their return to Totnes at the end of the day.

The guys sang brilliantly under the direction of MD Roy Hann having to contend with tannoy announcements, train noise and the general hubbub of Paddington Station!


The Mayflower Project group based in Ballard House, Plymouth were most appreciative and couldn’t give the Kingsmen enough praise for their performance and effort to make it a hugely successful event.

It’s always a joy to be invited to sing at wedding. They are always such special occasions and often held at wonderful venues and locations. One such recent occasion was when we were asked to sing at the wedding of Grace and Will at a beautiful location overlooking the harbour at Salcombe, Devon.
