From Duran Duran to The Smiths, 80s Revival will take you back to the 80s in style, performing a variety of 80s hits with live instruments and backing tracks. 90s tribute also available.

Like a bit of Numan? Go misty eyed over Duran? Okay so everyone had bad hair, everything was luminous & every school had an annoying kid who could do the rubiks cube in under a minute (taking the stickers off doesn’t count!) But the 80s was a decade of great tunes & 80s Revival brings you the biggest, fattest, coolest tracks of the era; So flick back that fringe, slip on the ray bans, strap that big fat 80s mobile to your back &... Relax!

With a passion for synths and all things electric 80s Revival is able to take on some of the more challenging songs of the 80s, using loops and samples alongside drums, guitar and bass. The result is an unrivalled tribute to the most famous artists of the decade.

The band are also able to play a set of 90s material!

What people say

  • We were extremely pleased with 80s Revival and I would recommend them to anyone. The music was brilliant and they got everyone dancing all night. They were such a friendly easy going bunch of guys too and just got themselves sorted without any hassle we couldn't have been more pleased, it was a brilliant night.

    Deb Nicol, Wedding, London, November 2009

  • 80s Revival are a talented and well organised band. They enhanced our wedding reception playing music that all our guests enjoyed and danced to. We have since received many compliments from our guests saying how much they enjoyed the band. They also have a DJ option with a vast array of music tracks.

    Georgina, Wedding, London, October 2009

  • 80s Revival are consummate professionals. We hardly knew they were there until they began to play, but at that point the dancefloor was full from the start of their set to the end. We offered them a list of our favourite tracks on their playlist, and they based their choices very much on what we'd asked for, without sticking slavishly to the list, which we didn't want. I would recommend them to anyone. The sound balance was perfect, no-one complained about it being too loud, not even the oldies, and the performance was just amazingly polished, even when we requested a song that wasn't on their playlist for our first dance. Thank you so much 80s Revival, we will definitely have you back if we need a live band in the future, you were fantastic and made our day.

    Helen, Wedding, Suffolk, September 2009

  • Lads, Just a note to say thanks for everything! Everybody thought you were brilliant, to cover an age group of 18- 50 plus takes some doing, especially after traveling from Norfolk all the way down to Somerset! Everybody has commented to me how good you sounded and also what nice blokes you were too. It was a special occasion in our squadrons history and your fantastic performance made it even more memorable. To steal a song from the night you guys made it a "Fantastic Day"!!!!!!!!! Thank you so much and don't be surprised when we call again!

    AEM John "Snowy" Winter, 801 Naval Fighter Squadron party, Somerset, July 2009

  • Thank you for Saturday night. Everyone we have spoken to about the event has commented on what a fantastic band you are. We are thinking of doing the same next year, so may get in touch again. Once again thanks

    Mark Farley, Fundraising event, Devon, June 2009

  • Richard, I'm back from honeymoon. Just a quick e-mail to say thanks. There were many comments on how good you guys were and everyone really enjoyed the music. PS Thanks for guiding me through my impromptu performance of Gold!

    Chris Stewart, Wedding, East Midlands, May 2009

  • You & the band were all really, really fantastic - in the words of Simon Cowell (or was it Nicky Chapman?) - you blew me away! The band was fab, and loads of people have since told us how great they thought you all were. Thanks again,

    Pippa Longman, Wedding, West Midlands, May 2009

  • Just a quick email to say thank you so much for Saturday night, you guys were brilliant. Everyone had a great time as you could probably tell from the many shouts for "one more" or in some cases "three more"! Thanks for making our night such a memorable one. We will certainly recommend you in the future.

    Lance and Emily, Wedding Anniversary, East Anglia, April 2009

  • I just wanted to say a great big huge thank you for Saturday nights gig - you
    guys were fantastic !!! So many people asked for your details & I hope that they book you!!! Thanks for making the party! You were stars!! Hopefully see you next year!! With kind regards and heartfelt thanks to you all!

    Lizzie Graham, Charity fund raiser, Manchester, November 2008

  • Just wanted to pass on my thanks to you and the band for playing at our wedding on the 6th August in Beaconsfield. You were absolutely fantastic and turned it into a brilliant evening for us all. The music was spot on so thank you! All the best

    Lucie and Mike, Wedding, Buckinghamshire, August 2007

  • We were delighted with the band. They were perfect for the evening and good company earlier in the day. Comments from our guests were entirely positive (which makes us look good!). They couldn't believe that we could find such a band without knowing them first. Some of the songs sounded better than the originals!! The dance-floor was packed which is always a great testament to a band (and to the quantity of alcohol). Thanks for your assistance.
