Size Five is back on the road after four years' absence and plans to become a regular fixture in local pubs and clubs.
The popular Keighley band is going back to its roots by playing the covers it first performed when the musicians started out in the 1970s.
This means predominantly 1950s and 1960s covers by the likes of Buddy Holly, the Searchers, Drifters and Cliff Richard.
Neil Sedaka and Eagles songs may also be heard as the quartet play from their 70-song repertoire.
