Artist Bio:
Lord Rockingham's XI was a British instrumental group formed by Harry Robinson, an English musician and composer, in 1958. The group was put together specifically to perform the song "Hoots Mon," which was written as the theme tune for the BBC's television show "The White Heather Club." The track became a hit, reaching number one on the UK Singles Chart in 1958.
The group's name, Lord Rockingham's XI, was a reference to Harry Robinson's pseudonym, Lord Rockingham. The group is considered a one-hit wonder, as they did not achieve the same level of success with any of their other recordings. Despite this, they remain a notable part of British music history for their contribution to the popularity of instrumental music in the late 1950s.
