80s Tribute Bands
Our 80s tribute bands bring a full-throttle mix of decadence and glamour with their authentic take on 80s pop and rock hits. From Wham, A-Ha and Spandet Ballet to Guns and Roses and Bonjovi, our 80s bands for hire guarantee to get your guests on the dance floor.
Why Hire an 80s Band?
The 80s have made a significant comeback in recent years – a bygone era when MTV ruled the screens and Pacman ate our pocket money.
Synth-pop duos, glam and hair-metallers, post-punk art rockers and stadium rock giants are just a few things we can thank the 80s for – as our 80s tribute bands won't hesitate to remind you.
80's Cover Bands
For those of you looking to travel back in time Marty McFly-style, why not consider one of our 80s cover bands? Our 80s bands have the sound, the look and the attitude of the most iconic acts of the eighties down to a tee – perfect for fans of bands and artists who are sadly no longer with us, and an exciting insight into what classic acts we love today were like in their prime. Treat your guests to the authentic 80s experience featuring the very best pop and rock 80s bands of the era including Wham, A-Ha, Madonna, Huey Lewis, Simple Minds, Bon Jovi, Bryan Adams, Phil Collins and Michael Jackson.
The nostalgia of 80s music is a great way of reliving a youth most marvellously misspent, and our 80s party bands also present a fun opportunity to introduce younger audiences to a culture they may have missed out on.
Any kind of get-together with a range of people looking to let their hair down (or, in some cases, hair-spray it up) would benefit from a few well-chosen hits from our 80s bands, whether it's a wedding reception, office party, school reunion, graduation, corporate event, charity event, awards ceremony or private dinner function.
80's Wedding bands
Our 80s wedding bands are the final part of a winning party formula, bringing their sometimes cheesy but always fun brand of music to weddings, parties and functions hosted by a variety of clients, including such major players as OK magazine, Coca Cola and HSBC.
Like all Bands For Hire acts, our 80s bands are flexible and accommodating when it comes to your budget and venue requirements – on top of providing all their own equipment (and sometimes an additional DJ set/customised playlist to be played during the band's break), many of our 80s function bands offer alternative lineups. Whether you want a chilled out set from a 4 or 5 piece, or want to go all out with an 11 or 12-piece, sunglasses and popped collars are a must!
