Background to the Show In the year 2005, The Andrews Sisters concept was added to the successful Glenn Miller Tribute Big Band as a “sugar & spice” variety act to the performance.
When the Glenn Miller Tribute Band changed to become part of the Qld Pops Orchestra, we decided to form a Show with the 4-piece band.
In April 2007, Cherryn Lomas, formed the Andrews Sisters Tribute with the Popular Elegant Swing Quartet.

Our infamous Show! Incredibly, we have had popular sell-out shows where all the patrons get together; dancing to the energetic swing beat & jump blues! As performers, we encourage people to sing along & have a great time.
The Andrews Sisters were the “sweethearts” of WW11 & we wear the authentic S.H.A.E.F. (Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Force) uniforms.
These are the uniforms of the peacekeeping force the Americans wore in Europe from Feb onwards 1944. In the second part of the show, we like to “chasse out” into our fabulous frocks.
Onwards There’s something magic about the Andrews Sisters songs – the first ever-successful chart-breaking female group. Honestly, that keeps us loving what we do.
The Andrew Sisters Tribute Show love to perform and ignite our audiences with these beautiful hits from the past…
