"Phil and Josh turned up at the agreed time to set up and sound check, then changed into splendid costumes for the performance. The performance was stunning and had the audience enthralled including at least one die hard Elton fan. Phil had discussed and agreed times before hand and was flexible in the night to accommodate any changes needed. Extremely professional and wonderful entertainment. Highly recommended."
"I booked The Rubber Souls for my mums 80th Birthday Party and they were fantastic! The music and singing was brilliant and they had everyone up dancing. Very professional and very friendly too. I wouldn't hesitate to recomemnd them. Julie - Wirral"
"The guys were excellent I was unable to be prsent at the set up and soundcheck but they were great according to our team. The perdormance was great though "George" had a dodgy guitar lead and I thought they should have had a roadie looking after them. Sadly the restrictions in the St Georges Hall meant the final set didnt quite finish as planned but that was our issue not theirs. I would definitly book them again if i need a Beatles Act they are definitely one of the best."
Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore
A tribute band is a musical group that exclusively performs the songs of a specific well-known artist or band, imitating their style, appearance, and often, their stage presence. These bands are dedicated to recreating the music and sometimes even the costumes and mannerisms of the original artists, offering audiences a nostalgic or celebratory experience. Tribute acts can play anywhere from weddings to private events to corporate events, where guests can enjoy a live performance reminiscent of their favourite artists, even if the original band is no longer active or available for shows.
A cover band performs a wide range of songs from different artists and genres, while a tribute band is dedicated to emulating the music, style, and often the appearance of a specific artist or band.
Tribute bands normally perform two 1-hour sets or three 40-minute sets, with a 15- to 30-minute break in between. Your band's setup and soundcheck will take about an hour and a half.
A standout tribute band meticulously replicates the original artist's music, stage presence, and mannerisms. Attention to detail in everything from sound to appearance, is paramount. Professionalism in punctuality and performance is crucial. Hire a tribute act that balances popular hits and fan favourites to keep the audience engaged. A great band strikes the perfect balance between authenticity and adaptability, creating an unforgettable homage to the original artist. Explore Encore's collection of some of the best best tribute bands in the UK.
Tribute bands in the UK typically do not pay royalties for performing live cover versions of songs. However, the venues where these bands perform might have licenses with performance rights organisations (PROs) like PRS for Music, which allows them to host live music events. These licenses often cover the performance of copyrighted songs, ensuring that songwriters and original artists receive royalties for their work. Tribute artists benefit from these venue licenses, allowing them to perform without individual royalty obligations. It's important for venues to have the appropriate licenses to ensure compliance with copyright laws and fair compensation for songwriters.
