The 80s Theory are a well established and highly regarded live act on the holiday park circuit over the last 5 years. The band is managed by a leading and reputable entertainment agency and have performance contracts waiting once ready again.
The 80s Theory perform all around the country at some of the UK’s most popular holiday resorts, including Haven Holidays, Parkdean Resorts and Park Holidays.
Our 90-minute setlist is tailored to suit a female soprano voice, covering iconic artists such as Bonnie Tyler, Cher, Diana Ross, Tina Turner, Irene Cara to name a few!
The band separated back in May to take some personal time off and for others to take paths of their own. So after a short break it’s time to restart with a fresh faced new line-up ready to hit the stage bigger and better.
Since the pandemic, the band has been a 3-piece consisting of vocals, guitar and drums (me) + backing track for keys.
I’m looking for a new power house lead vocalist to be the new face and voice of the band taking us into 2024 and beyond.
This is a great opportunity for someone looking at getting into the holiday park scene and perform at some great show bars, but without needing to gig every weekend.
All shows are paid and average £200-250 per member excluding basic expenses.
Once ready again, we’ll be playing 1 to 2 shows a month. This could be a Friday and Saturday double-up with an overnight stopover, or just a one off Friday or Saturday night.

- Big love for the 80s!
