80'S Named Bands & Singers
It’s as easy as ABC if you want a distinctive slice of the 80s as your primary entertainment. Martin Fry and his band are very much in demand along with some of the most distinctive and well loved vocalists of recent years. Spandau Ballet front man Tony Hadley is still ‘True’ to his roots while Paul Young is available to ‘Lay His Hat’ at your function. Go West’s Pete Cox recently went west and was ‘Reborn in the USA’ with a vocal that is as clear today as it was when he ‘Closed His Eyes’ more than a quarter of a century ago.
Add in The Human League, Barbra Dickson, Billy Bragg, Chas & Dave, The Damned and Curiosity Killed the Cat and you can see that we have the 80s pretty well covered if that’s how you want to entertain your clients or friends at your special function.
