That 80s Thing
Full starFull starFull starFull starFull star

"From the first communication we had to the end of their set on our wedding day, that 80s thing absolutely smashed it for us! A top bunch of blokes who kept the dance floor full and the atmosphere alive into the night. Ian was fab at keeping in touch and they were such professionals the night went smooth as butter! We honestly can’t recommend them enough, all of my guests commented about how good they were and finishing with the 500 miles love conga was ace! There’s not enough stars on this app for me to award! These guys are not just another wedding band, they really elevated our day so if you’re looking for a proper class act for your wedding/event/or whatever, book these guys! Thanks That 80s thing, you were fantastic👍💖 Carla & Luke"

FAQs about hiring 80s Tribute Bands in Edinburgh

Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore

Can any 80s tribute band play my favourite song?

Professional 80s tribute bands will often take requests, but you will need to give them plenty of notice. Please also keep in mind that 80s tribute bands may ask for an small additional fee to prepare songs that aren't already on their song list. You can view the 80s tribute band's song list on their Encore profile.

How much time do 80s tribute bands take to set up?

Your 80s tribute band will usually arrive about an hour or so before their performance begins to set up and get settled before they start playing. To avoid any delays, make sure the performance space is ready for the 80s tribute band prior to their arrival.

My venue has asked for the performer’s PLI & PAT inspection certificates. What are these?

PLI stands for Public Liability Insurance. This insurance covers damage to another person or their property (it is also known as third party insurance). As many of our 80s tribute bands are members of the Musician's Union, they are already covered by PLI up to £10 million. PAT stands for portable appliance testing. Most of our 80s tribute bands will already have a PAT inspection certificate for their musical equipment/PA system, which they can provide to your venue if they need it.
