About The Fivepenny Piece
The Fivepenny Piece are, as the name suggests, a five-piece band from Stalybridge near Manchester, England and all the band members are from Stalybridge or nearby Ashton-under-Lyne. They were originally called The Wednesday Folk and regularly met at the Broadoak Hotel in Ashton to entertain the locals on Wednesday evenings. They played in Stalybridge Town Hall (now demolished) from time to time and in 1968 soon after they formed, they won the TV talent show "New Faces" which earned them a recording contract with EMI Records.
