REMBRANDT - a tribute band with a difference, but first, let’s make something clear:
yes, R.E.M. did write some dark and moody songs, but making the mistake that all R.E.M.
songs are like ‘Everybody Hurts’ is like thinking every Beatles song is like “Yesterday”
or every Led Zeppelin song is like the first half of “Stairway To Heaven”. Most of R.E.M.’s back catalogue
is either all out rock, like “What’s The Frequency, Kenneth?” “The One I Love” or “Bad Day”,
or it’s ridiculously catchy pop, like “The Sidewinder Sleeps Tonite”, “Stand” or “Shiny Happy People”.
Yes, you’ve got the big hits, like “Man On The Moon” or “Losing My Religion” but if you want
a five piece rock band with a difference here it is!
REMbrandt play the best singles and album tracks from R.E.M.’s 31 year, 15 studio album career with passion and accuracy.
Longer theatre and club sets often include acoustic and piano driven sections reminiscent of R.E.M.’s two MTV Unplugged appearances,
and include covers the band themselves played live on tour by artists such as U2, David Bowie and Creedence Clearwater Revival.
