Here's a little about The English Channel, from their Facebook page:
"Established in 2001, The English Channel (All English, All the Time) performs the incredible British rock and pop hits of the mid '60s to mid '70s. Each song is meticulously recreated to sound just like the original recording, just like you remember it. The English Channel has wowed audiences of all sizes and all ages in the mid-Atlantic states with its passion and enthusiasm for this music. Tune in to The English Channel. They'll take you back to where you once belonged."
