BLIND PASSENGERS presents 80s EXPRESS
80s EXPRESSis the name of BLIND PASSENGER frontman NIK PAGE's new live project, for which he has formed a top-class international tribute band to bring the pop and wave classics of the golden 80s to the stage with big beats and maximum entertainment factor.
80s EXPRESS CREDENCES A top-class 80s cover show with hits by NEW ORDER, DEPECHE MODE, DEAD OR ALIVE, THE SISTERS OF MERCY, CAMOUFLAGE, DIE ÄRZTE, THE HUMAN LEAGUE, TEARS FOR FEARS, THE CURE, SOFT CELL, BILLY IDOL, FRANKY GOES TO HOLLYWOOD, THE POLICE, U2 and many other 80s cult bands, as well as numerous NDW cover songs (GOLDENER REITER, TERRA TITANIC, 99 LUFTBALLONS, MAJOR TOM and EISBÄR).
In a very short time, Nik Page and his enchanting ladies earned themselves the reputation of being Germany's hottest 80s cover band. The arrangements of the international glam-pop 80s tribute show are not presented in the typical 0815 (Top40) rock band style, but are modern, electronic and extremely danceable, without losing the special wave charm and distinctive elements of the originals from the Golden Eighties.
80s EXPRESS bandleader NIK PAGE has played a key role in shaping German electro-pop since the early 90s with BLIND PASSENGERS. As a young singer in various London scene bands, NIGEL WHEELER experienced the birth of the NEW WAVE scene at first hand.
The 80's live shows by 80s EXPRESS are a neon-colored journey back in time to the golden decade of pop music, a damn entertaining 80's dance party peppered with numerous show interludes and elaborate stage decorations, but above all a guarantee for a sweaty and hoarse audience - the ultimate 80's tribute band.
