iCandi is Dorset's hottest rock & pop covers band, originally established in August 2009.

This five-piece line-up of vocals, rhythm, lead, bass guitars and percussion ensures a full-bodied sound, with music to suit all ages, moods and tastes. Our eclectic repertoire of rock, pop and blues covers ranges from songs of the sixties right up to date. Perfect for pubs, clubs, weddings and private functions - and with our extensive repertoire, we can shape our set-list to suit the occasion!

iCandi is predominantly a covers band with female lead vocals - but our boys of the band take their turns at the mic for the odd few numbers, giving us the flexibility to mix things up a bit and add some variety! We aim to cover tunes that will have an all-round appeal, not necessarily the same `standards` as played by many other local bands, including melodies from all manner of artists and eras....and most importantly songs that we all, as a band, love to play! Some tunes are kept as near to the original as possible, then some are thrown into the mix and come out as our own take on a popular song.

We tend to vary each set-list according to venue & audience, ensuring a fresh mix of songs at each gig, rather than churning out the same polished routine time after time! Our repertoire is ever-expanding, as we learn more numbers after hearing newly released tunes or some long forgotten `golden oldies` that inspire us! This means our set lists are constantly evolving to include some old favourites along with a few `new` numbers to keep things up-to-date and provide enough variety to keep our own musical appetites quenched!

We are always prepared to learn a new song for a special occasion, providing the tune lends itself to a 5-piece arrangement and that we have adequate time to learn and rehearse it thoroughly. We typically select around 10-15 songs per set lasting 45-60 minutes...and, of course, we always get asked back up for an encore!!!
