About VHS

The UK's most authentic 80s covers band
80s tribute band
Lancaster
Public liability insurance of £10 million

Our number one priority is quality. We operate a near silent stage (our real drum kit has skins on the toms which trigger samples) meaning we have a very fine level of control over our sound, our levels and our volume. Much more so than traditional set-ups. This also means that we can use authentic drums sounds for each our tracks, we sometimes even use the actual sample from the original song! This is our USP and what sets us apart from the others. VHS has a rapidly growing reputation for being one of the most authentic 80s cover bands in the UK. Originating in the North West each of the four core members has over 20 years of experience in a myriad of fields in the music industry ranging from music production, live sound, touring and session work as well as solo performance and songwriting. The dance floor is never empty thanks to our all-killer-no-filler sets featuring music by David Bowie, Prince, ABC, Bruce Springsteen, Eurythmics, Fleetwood Mac, Human League, Kate Bush, Paul Simon, Tears and Fears, Sting, The Buggles, Aztec Camera, George Benson, Men at Work, Soft Cell, Young Cannibals and Steve Windwood. Since forming in 2022, VHS have been praised for their energetic shows, high standard of musicianship and their polished sound. Reliability and professionalism lie at the core of what we do which is why we have become a top choice for events organisers and promoters. We create an atmosphere wherever we perform; whether it's a function room or a large festival stage, our show will be crisp, energised and the sound will be big! If you are looking for a band to add that finishing touch to your event, then look no further!

What a fantastic afternoon with VHS at our Ownersfest. Great musicians and amazing voices, and so professional. This is the second year running that we’ve had them at our event and they know exactly how to entertain a crowd and get the place rockin, with their 80s covers – a lot of which sound better than the originals. Loads of people have asked us to book them again for next year, so it will definitely be three years on the trot! And finally - they’re a really nice bunch of guys as well. Do yourself a favour and get them booked for your next do!!

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

We operate a near silent stage meaning we have a very fine level of control over our sound quality and our volume. It also means we can use original 80s drum patches with each song giving us that extra level of detail that many other bands simply cannot offer. Our players are all top quality performers in their own right

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

In various guises we have played at Reading and Leeds festivals, BBC Radio 1 and 2 live sessions, the Bridgewater Hall, Nottingham Albert Hall, Steinway Hall in London, Kendal Calling Festival and countless other venues across the country.

Do you have different line-up options?

Yes we are primarily a 4-piece, but we can play as a 3, or even as a 5-piece with a female vocalist for special circumstances

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

If we have plenty of notice then this shouldn't be a problem

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes we can provide this

How much time do you need to set up?

90 mins

Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?

Yes you can choose which songs you would like

Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?

Yes

Can you learn song requests before the event?
