Dexys Bootleg Runners: The world's only Dexy's Midnight Runners Tribute band.

This is not a couple of guys with midi files, this is a full blown, ten-piece HUGE sound, faithfully re-creating the halcyon days of all incarnations of Kevin Rowlands imagination including a three-piece horn section, banjo, accordion, organ, piano, guitar, bass, fiddle, and drums. Once seen never forgotten, and a fistful of songs that will take you back to the days when you were Searching For the Young Soul Rebels!!!

They will be supported by fabulous girl band, The Fliks.

High energy girls of the 1960s, playing the coolest Motown, Brill Building, Decca, Soul, Spector and Euro Swinging Girls, the Fliks a seven piece band that specialise in covering hits from 1960's era girl groups and solo artists. The line-up of three female vocals and four piece band strike the perfect balance between authenticity and originality in their effort to capture a British Cavern era cover band.
