The 90's Britpop Experience

The 90's Britpop Experience are, in their own words, a tribute to the British Britpop music scene? and a powerful combination of passion and quality. A tribute band, to me, equals lunatic professionalism. To tribute a whole scene is a big ask. Good covers bands are rare enough, taking that enormous and unlikely step beyond random amateur recreation. But these guys really do tick the box of perfectionist, professional curators though. Their Friday night gig was time travel night with a setlist that captured the point where British alt-rock got (largely) happy and popular (in a good way). A guitar dominated, looping and lurching opener with Ocean Colour Scene and The Riverboat Song; polished and convincing. The second song in and I'm braving the dance floor with the pointy shoed brigade. A few songs further and they offer me proof of their professionalism. A very-very-very long time ago I was lucky enough to make it into Brixton Academy and unfortunate enough to catch James on a sincerely off night. And I've heard James and Sit Down many times since: at home, on the radio, in DJ sets and covered-more-than-it-should-be. One of those beautiful songs that gets tired through over use. And on this particular Friday night I heard it come alive; all vitality restored. There were the things I expected; a good dose of Blur and Oasis both, Stereophonics, Bluetones and more, then some referencing back to foundation stones with The Who and The Jam. The 90's Britpop Experience switched between styles and musical voices with conviction; into acoustic things and seamlessly back out again. The magic of seeing grown men dance without a pint in hand happened repeatedly through the two sets. On any given set you pray for that one song you don't see coming; the track you might flick through on the album that becomes something else entirely live. So it was with Blur's Charmless Man. That perfect Blur poetry, simple, direct and delivered with energy. The 90's Britpop Experience are a good distance from being charmless. They are careful collectors and curators of songs; fine musicians and performers.

Thanks a million for last night. Absolutely superb. Had texts and emails all day saying how good you boys were. Top Job!

These guys are so talented and the set they played was a perfect Britpop greatest hits! It's the first wedding I've been to where everybody danced the whole night and a lot of the credit for that has to go to The 90's Britpop Experience. The guys were also really easy to deal with and learnt the song we requested for our first dance.

We honestly can't thank you enough for last night! We had a fantastic time, as did all our friends! Was exactly how we wanted it to be!! We were so impressed! The whole band were so friendly, played an amazing set list, and really got our guests involved! Will definitely recommend this band to anyone looking for a band for any occasion! Thank you so much!

Just got back from honeymoon, so I thought I'd drop you a quick email to thank you again for the amazing time you gave us and our wedding guests last Saturday. I can confidently say that every last one of us was blown away by your set – one of my mates said it was one of the top three gigs he's ever been to! I've passed on some feedback to the agency, but I wanted to thank you all personally for a really great night's entertainment. Really top lads too, your personal congratulations and best wishes were a lovely touch. Take care, and if/when you play the Midlands, our paths will definitely cross again.

Massive thank you for the other night. You were a HUGE hit, every person commented on how great you guys were. (Even the Americans who only knew Wonderwall). I think you made James's night/year. Will make sure to recommend you to anyone we speak with!!

The 90's Britpop Experience were absolutely fantastic, they created a perfect atmosphere and filled the dance floor almost instantly. They were very professional from booking right through to the big day and even emailed me afterwards to congratulate us. Loads of my guests commented on how good they were. Highly recommended!

Awesome night, thanks for making the trek all the way to Kent to make my Becky and James' wedding evening so special. Top performance from a great bunch of lads. Quality!

You made the day even more amazing, you rocked it and I'm so happy I found you lot. We will certainly go to any gigs when we are up that way visiting. I'm already planning our 5 year anniversary.. you guys will be the star attraction!

What an absolute class act you guys are - I may be slightly biased as it is 'my era' and I booked you but you were absolutely amazing. I actually got quite emotional stood in the middle singing along! On a booking level, you were a pleasure to deal with. All the punters I spoke to loved it and you are more than welcome back in Penistone again.The quality of the performance was second to none and soon had 600 paying customers singing along to Britpop classics and helped us make loads for our local charities.
