The Human League

26 Jun 2025 - 2 Aug 2025

The Human League are a British New Wave band first formed in 1977 and, after a change in line up, achieved huge popularity in the 1980s. They have continued recording and performing through the 1990s, 2000s and today. The Human League are so credible it's incredible. In fact, they're probably more highly regarded now than they were in 1981 when they released their landmark album Dare! They're used to everyone from Madonna to Moby, Pet Shop Boys to Robbie Williams, citing them as an influence. But they're about more than esoteric infiltration there has been mainstream penetration, too, commensurate with a band who gave us the greatest ever Christmas Number 1 single with 1981/2's 'Dont You Want Me', who have had four Top 10 albums and eight Top 10 singles in the UK as well as two US Number 1 singles and sold 20 million records worldwide. Then there are the 'L' girls, the new generation of synth-driven female pop artists, who have got in on the League adoring act: La Roux is a known admirer of the electro pioneers, while Little Boots is such a fan she requested Philip Oakeys input on her debut album. Even Lady Gaga professed to be a devotee when she met them. Not surprisingly for a group who were famously described by David Bowie in 1979 as "the sound of the future", and indeed the group was once called The Future, The Human League have never been about resting on their laurels or relying on past glories to see them through. The Human League's unique quality of apartness is notable. "We're peculiar," says Susan Ann Sulley, utterly unabashed. "People think pop music is X Factor and S Club 7 and we're still hankering after a Roxy-Bowie-Donna Summer-Chic version of pop. We don't fit in. People don't quite appreciate how strange we are." Over the years, the Human League has been sampled and covered by various artists including George Michael and Robbie Williams. The band has been a huge influence for many electro-pop acts including early Depeche Mode, Madonna, Moby, and countless others.

Defying all expectations, lead singer and guitarist Keith Xander was born without a right arm below the elbow and plays guitar using a prosthesis and hook with a pick attached at the end. Although many who have seen Keith play believe him to be an extraordinary guitarist despite of his perceived 'disability' he is a virtuoso musician in his own right and his playing rivals the best in the industry. In 2014 the band ended their 5-year tenure as the resident band at Liverpool's iconic Cavern Club pub and went on to support the likes of Joe Bonamassa, Joe Satriani, Manfred Mann's Earth Band, The Temperance Movement, ex-Whitesnake's Bernie Marsden and even Bon Jovi at Old Trafford Stadium to name a few. 2016 saw the band release their debut album, titled '11:11', on V2 Benelux Records, recorded at the world-famous Wisseloord studios in Hilversum, outside of Amsterdam. The album went on to receive critical acclaim from the likes of Classic Rock, Planet Rock Radio and from BBC Radio's Bob Harris.

Kiss! Dressed To Kill

1 Nov 2025 - 1 Nov 2025

You wanted the best? You got 'The Best' - The Ultimate tribute to KISS! DRESSED TO KILL - Europe's First, and the world's longest-running tribute to KISS - and since 1990 they've played clubs and theatres throughout the UK, Europe, Scandinavia, and in Japan, replicating with scary accuracy the look & sound of a KISS show, right down to between-song chatter (in accent). A 2-hour set of hits & classics, bloodspitting, firebreathing and special fx. So close is their representation that they've been engaged on numerous occasions by KISS to promote CD and DVD releases and tours since 1993; and were asked to be featured performers in 'Gene Simmons: Rock School' by the 'Demon' himself! Other KISS tribute might claim to be 'No.1', 'the Ultimate' or to have been 'voted' the best - none of them have done what DRESSED TO KILL have done, none of them have been where DRESSED TO KILL have been, and none of them have been going 30 years. The 3 decades + history and achievements speak for themselves. If DRESSED TO KILL are good enough for KISS, that is maybe all you need to know..... "The world's top Kiss Tribute" - Kerrang! "Like Kiss, only better!" - Classic Rock
