About the show
Packed with huge hits, tight musicianship and some of the best-known songs of the late 70s/early 80s era, we’re delighted to bring you a North East debut for this sensational double bill celebrating the Soundtrack of a Generation.
Strutting straight outta London, Totally Blondie bring the swagger, sass and sheer sonic rush of Blondie to the stage. This electric show features a razor-sharp band fronted by superstar frontwoman Chloe a magnetic, platinum-blonde powerhouse who truly gets Debbie Harry.
From CBGB classics to crossover chart hits they cover all the bases: Heart of Glass, Atomic, Hanging on the Telephone, One Way or Another, Dreaming, Rapture – all delivered with true New-York-via-London attitude, post-punk cool and disco-tinted sleaze.
This is Blondie as they were: fearless, genre-bending, dangerously stylish. It’s tight, it’s loud, and it’s a helluva lot of fun – equal parts art-rock, punk energy and dancefloor euphoria.
The Polis (they’re Scottish, natch!) are one of the UK’s leading tributes, bringing the musicianship and unmistakable sound of Sting, Andy Summers and Stewart Copeland to the stage with raw energy that’s truly infectious.
From the reggae-infused grooves of So Lonely to the stadium-sized anthems Every Breath You Take, Message in a Bottle and Don’t Stand So Close To Me, they faithfully recreate the songs that made The Police one of the biggest bands in the world.
The Polis
The Polis are Scotland's one and only Police Tribute act and play an energetic set of over two hours of The Police's best known singles and album tracks. The band do not pretend or try to look like the original members but instead focus their energies on trying to capture the nuances and energy of the original band at their best.
The band were originally formed back in 2005, but were plagued by personnel issues with the result that they called things a day at the end of 2007. After a five year hiatus the remaining band members found a new singer and have spent the last year and a half getting their set back into shape.
