****************** The Dreamers Announcement *******************
On behalf of The Dreamers, we are devastated to announce the passing of Bryan ‘Raven’ Byng, last Friday (16th April 2021) after a heart attack at the early age of 68. Bryan was diagnosed with lung cancer a few weeks ago and wasn’t in the best of health after having a heart scare years ago followed by a stroke approximately 5-6 years ago which forced him to leave the band as it had affected his eye sight. Bryan was one hell of a musician, he was the rhythm guitarist but played bass on some numbers along with keyboards and the harmonica. Bryan was part of Freddie and The Dreamers with Alan, Peter Ford and Gerry Evans when Freddie’s original Dreamers disbanded, and then continued to tour with The Dreamers until his stroke just a few years ago. Bryan was a great character and we will miss him terribly, but we will all always have the memories to hold onto. All our love and sincere condolences to Bryan’s family. Keep rocking and rolling up there Bryan, till we all meet again!!! RIP Bryan........Love from Alan, Colin, Steve and Nicky and Mum. |

Carrying on the tradition of the guys who started it all in 1963: Freddie Garrity, Derek Quinn, Roy Crewson, Bernie Dwyer and Pete Birrel
never to be forgotten or equaled, Formerly ‘Freddie and The Dreamers.’ The Dreamers remain one of the best known named bands
on the sixties music circuit. Changes to personnel over the past 50 years were of course inevitable but one member
Alan Mosca remains in the band today, he has been in the band as 'Freddie and The Dreamers'
and then 'The Dreamers' for over 40 years.
Along with Freddie, Alan toured throughout Europe, Australia and The Middle East and was alongside Freddie as
part of the British Invasion Tour of America, sharing the stage with Gerry and The Pacemakers and The Searchers appearing
at Madison Square Gardens, New York and other prestige venues. TV appearances alongside Freddie include
Cilla Black’s Surprise Surprise, The Noel Edmunds TV show, Australia today and many more.
Alan is joined by The Temple Brothers, Steve and Colin who in their own right are seasoned professionals having
toured extensively with their Everly Brothers tribute show and Midnight Dynamos rock and roll band and newest member Nicky Walker also a seasoned professional, for over 40 years touring the UK and Abroad as a session musician and his own unique Buddy Holly tribute show. With their unique
harmonies and musicianship they add an extra dimension to the Dreamers, who along with the hits of Freddie and The Dreamers perform the
most popular songs of the fifties rock and roll days and the great songs of the sixties.
