ECHOES OF THE BUNNYMEN
An aural tribute to the Alternative Fab Four
Saturday 26 April
Saltburn Theatre
An aural tribute to the Alternative Fab Four played by four musicians who are huge fans of the Bunnymen and have managed to authentically recreate the early sound of one of the UK’s best-ever indie bands.
It’s not a traditional tribute act, no dressing up – just a love and appreciation of iconic music and long live the real thing. Lay down thy disbelief and groove!
‘Oh Wow’ – Les Pattinson, Echo and the Bunnymen
‘The band did a great job… If you see them on anywhere go check them out’ – Will Sergeant, Echo and the Bunnymen
CHASING MUMFORD
Europe’s no. 1 Mumford & Sons tribute
Saltburn Theatre – Friday 9 May
Chester Live Rooms – Sat 14 June
Leeds Old Woollen – Sat 28 June
Billingham Forum – Fri 10 Oct
Chasing Mumford bring you a joyous, high-energy, musically accomplished tribute to one of the biggest bands to have emerged out of the UK in the past 20 years.
Nothing is on tape, Chasing Mumford can REALLY play and the harmonies are jaw dropping. Not that surprising when you know that band members have previously played with rock royalty including Madonna and Seal.
THE SOUTHMARTINS ACOUSTIC
Stripped-down Beautiful South & Housemartins hits
Saturday 17 May
Stockton ARC

Expect hits from both the Beautiful South and the Housemartins with classic songs such as Happy Hour, Perfect 10, You Keep it all In, Rotterdam, Me and the Farmer, Song for Whoever and so many more classic pop hits from the witty, melodic pen of Ivor-Novello-winning Paul Heaton (he loves ‘em – and if that isn’t the best endorsement you could ask for then we don’t know what is).
THE SOUTHMARTINS ACOUSTIC
Stripped-down Beautiful South & Housemartins hits
Sunday 18 May – 4pm
Saltburn Theatre
A rare 4-piece acoustic show in an intimate all-seated setting from a band that usually sells out much bigger rooms up and down the UK.

FLEETWOOD BAC
UK’s original and most authentic Fleetwood Mac tribute
Friday 23 May
Stockton ARC
Rated by The Times as one of the U.K.’s top 5 tributes and raved about by Peter Green’s biographer, Fleetwood Bac were the world’s first and are regarded as the UK’s most authentic Fleetwood Mac Tribute show.
They were the first Fleetwood Mac tribute band to fully replicate the classic Stevie, Lindsey, Christine, John & Mick Rumours line-up and the sound, the look, the mystical atmosphere and on-stage chemistry are all portrayed with passion and energy.
Back by popular demand after their previous sell-outs at ARC, this promises to be a very special night indeed.
THE ROLLIN’ STONED
‘The best tribute to the World’s Greatest Rock n Roll Band!’
Saturday 31 May
Stockton ARC
‘About as true to the original as you can get’ – The Times Magazine
‘A magnificent Mick… exquisitely designed costumes… spot-on guitar playing’ – Mail On Sunday
With a Rollin’ Stoned show the costumes are shamelessly camp, gaudy and outrageously fab, the instruments genuinely vintage and the wit irreverent. However, while the tongue is never far from the cheek the band make sure it is never to the detriment of the music.
A typical two-hour show includes not only all the classic crowd-pleasing hits but is spiced with enough eclectic selections from the deeper recesses of Stones album archives to satisfy the most demanding of buffs. All performed with the same vibrantly authentic raw energy that characterised the original Stones in their prime.
‘Probably more authentic than the Stones themselves would be inclined to muster’ – The Times
SYMPLY DYLAN ACOUSTIC
4-piece tribute to Bob Dylan (‘but not a Bob Dylan tribute!’)
Saturday 31 May
Saltburn Theatre
Simply Dylan is the brainchild of John O’Connell. No frills, no gimmicks, no pretence – this is ‘a tribute to Bob Dylan, not a Bob Dylan tribute’. His band’s precise playing and high-energy renditions of Dylan’s work from the 1970s onwards have gathered momentum and generated incredible interest from modest origins as a project recognising Dylan’s 70th Birthday in 2011.
Since then Simply Dylan have gone from strength to strength – selling out the Cavern Club 6 times, receiving fantastic reviews for their international tours and opening up the Isle of Wight Festival on the Big Top Stage. And tickets are currently flying out for their latest full band tour which takes in some of the country’s most prestigious venues including Gateshead Glasshouse, Salford Lowry and Liverpool Royal Philharmonic.
For this stripped-down acoustic show John will be playing with a 4-piece band featuring instruments including violin, sax, acoustic and bass guitars, banjo, mandolin and of course harmonica.
THE MARLEY EXPERIENCE
The UK’s No.1 celebration of the music of Bob Marley and the Wailers
Saturday 28 June

Prepare to groove, skank and holler your way through a set jam-packed with hit after hit including One Love, Three Little Birds, No Woman No Cry, Buffalo Soldier, Iron Lion Zion, I Shot the Sheriff, Could You be Loved, Get Up Stand Up and many many more.
Positive Vibrations all round… this one will be special!
LIVEWIRE
The AC/DC Show
Saturday 12 July
Stockton ARC
Shoot to Thrill, Back in Black, Hells Bells, Whole Lotta Rosie… AC/DC – quite possibly the greatest rock band of all time – are brought to life by Live/Wire with the true passion you’d expect from five musicians who share your love of this legendary live act.
Live/Wire deliver a critically-acclaimed High Voltage two-hour rock ’n’ roll show that takes fans from Back in Black, one of the best-selling albums of all time, through to acclaimed 2020 release PWR UP with a healthy dose of the classics from the Bon Scott era to boot.
All this with a full bank of Marshall amps and cannons (yep, actual cannons).
For those about to rock we salute you… but don’t hang around, this one sells out every time!
THE GRAND BURLESQUE REVIEW
Solo, group & variety performances!
Fri 25 July
Saltburn Theatre
The Grand Burlesque Revue has been produced in association with House of Trixie Blue,
who’ve been producing sensational burlesque shows since 2012.
At its heart burlesque blends dance, performance, and striptease, but it’s far from one-note.
It can be glamorous and glitzy, bold and bawdy, cheekily comedic, or a fabulous drag
spectacle. Some performers dazzle with classic striptease, while others add singing, acting,
or unexpected surprises.
It’s the tease, not the reveal, that steals the show!
Please note – this show will contain nudity and is not for the faint-hearted or easily offended!

The Undertones
Saturday 9 Aug
Stockton ARC
The Undertones emerged from Derry, Northern Ireland in 1976, the result of five friends learning how to play basic rock and roll. Even by the standards of that decade, Derry was not the rock and roll capital of anywhere and with no live bands worth watching, they learned their trade by listening to mail order records, reading one of the few copies of NME that made it to Derry but most of all from listening to John Peel’s show on BBC Radio One. Practicing in their bedrooms eventually led to the band recording ‘Teenage Kicks’ in 1978 on Terri Hooley’s Good Vibrations label in Belfast. A copy was sent to the legendary DJ John Peel and he liked the track so much he played it twice in a row on his radio show!
Live The Undertones present a glorious set of classic tracks taken from what are considered by many fans and critics to be some of the best punk albums of all time, adding to them a whole bucketful of their iconic guitar pop hits & anthems, Get Over You, Jimmy Jimmy, My Perfect Cousin, You’ve Got My Number, Julie Ocean, Wednesday Week, and, of course, Teenage Kicks.
In 2025 The Undertones come roaring back with an extensive UK & European tour to promote the release of their very first LIVE ALBUM…hard to believe that the band never released a live recording. The new album includes selected old and new songs performed by the post 1991 lineup with Paul McLoone on vocals and is currently only available on vinyl and only at the live shows.

Saturday 20 Sept

To warm you up for the main event Joel and the band bring you an all-killer-no-filler 50 minute celebration of the music of Billy Joel – from beautiful ballads like She’s Always a Woman and Piano Man to stompers like We Didn’t Start the Fire and of course everybody’s favourite Wedding Disco anthem – Uptown Girl.
Then wall-to-wall Elton John anthems – Your Song? Rocket Man? Crocodile Rock? I’m Still Standing? You’re going to get to hear them tonight as ‘top tribute’ (the Sun) Joel and the band return to the Point after taking the roof off last autumn.
PURE WELLER
Paul Weller, the Style Council & the Jam’s greatest hits
Saturday 27 Sept
Saltburn Theatre
The ultimate tribute to Paul Weller’s amazing career – from the early days of The Jam through the seminal works of The Style Council through to his illustrious solo output.
Paul Weller has always defined genres and pushed boundaries with his songwriting and live performances and this high-octane 4-piece pride themselves on their live sound and stage presence that takes audiences through five decades of passion, unforgettable lyrics and those sing-your-heart-out choruses.
Main man Marcus has got bags of charisma and a belter of a voice, but this is very much a team effort with every member of this super-tight four-piece actively playing their part.
These lads absolutely smashed it in front of 1000+ people when they jumped in as last minute support with the Southmartins at the Town Hall last Christmas. If you weren’t there – come see what you missed!
