Details of Stipe (R.E.M. Tribute)

Artist / Band

Details

Stipe are recognised as the definitive tribute to R.E.M., the band from Athens, Georgia who are widely credited as pioneers of alternative rock, influencing countless bands who would follow. R.E.M remain a model for young musicians everywhere: a band who always did things on their own terms, committed to doing the right thing for each other, and never compromising on their artistic independence. They called it a day, on their own terms, in 2011, and have repeatedly ruled out ever reuniting. Stipe are a professional six-piece who, as huge fans of the band, take the music (if not themselves) seriously. Iconic songs such as ‘Losing My Religion’ and ‘Everybody Hurts’ are recreated note-for-note, while Richard Southern’s studied vocal pays homage to Michael Stipe’s unique voice and enigmatic performance style. While all shows feature the familiar hits, every setlist is different. Deeper cuts from R.E.M.’s peerless back-catalogue, such as ‘Talk About The Passion’ or ‘Don’t’ Go Back To Rockville’ will delight fans of the band, and is an opportunity for any fan of great music to hear this timeless material played live with love and care.

Stipe are a must-see tribute band who capture the essence of R.E.M., one of the defining bands of our times.
