About Brit Floyd
If you can’t see the real thing, there’s nothing wrong with an imitation. For that record, that’s not always true, but it’s certainly true with Brit Floyd, which is a Pink Floyd Tribute band. Unfortunately, the world no longer has the privilege of being able to experience Pink Floyd in concert anymore. Unfortunately, those who are too young to remember them will never know what they’ve missed. However, Brit Floyd comes as close as any tribute band ever has to being able to recreate the sound, effects, visual, and soundscape of a Pink Floyd concert. For anybody who’s ever wanted to experience the magic of Pink Floyd, seeing Brit Floyd is the next best thing and a worthy imitation.
Straight Out of Music City
One of the best parts of Brit Floyd that gives the band instant credibility is that they were formed in Liverpool, which is a city that’s known for giving birth to great bands. Plus, since Pink Floyd is a British band, it’s only natural that their best trip band also comes from Britain. Ironically, Brit Floyd was created by Damian Darlington on the heels of another Pink Floyd tribute band called The Australian Pink Floyd Show. But after years of touring with that group, Darlington thought that he could do it even better. He wanted a Pink Floyd tribute band that paid more attention to the visual aspect of the band, pay more attention to the lighting and nuances that would go into a Pink Floyd show, and it’s safe to say that he’s done just that.
A Team Effort
Part of what makes Brit Floyd such a great imitation of Pink Floyd is that the band has more than a dozen members who work toward recreating the Pink Floyd experience. The group has keyboard players, guitar players, drummers, saxophones, and countless vocalists. They are all accomplished musicians and singers in their own right, and they come together to make Brit Floyd the best it can be. Needless to say, it’s not easy to replicate the kind of performances that Pink Floyd put on while in their prime. But with the vast array of talented musicians that Brit Floyd has assembled, they surely come close.
