This show celebrates the musical genius of cult favourites, XTC and the Pixies. XTC: the UK’s influential post-punk pop geniuses, melodic and quirky. Performed with energy and flair by XACTO, the southern hemisphere’s foremost XTC tribute! After playing to enthusiastic audiences in Melbourne, Queensland and Canberra, now hitting Sydney at the Bridge Hotel. Come sing and bounce along to classics like Making Plans for Nigel, Senses Working Overtime, Generals and Majors, and lots more. “To replicate one of the greatest bands of the new wave is very hard. But they bloody did it.” “…the effervescent, angular songs of XTC delivered with loads of skills and humour.” The Pixies: Boston’s alt-rock pioneers, dynamic, spiky and explosive. Performed with love and commitment by Death to the Pixies, drawing highlights from the Pixies iconic catalogue - Monkey Gone to Heaven, Where is My Mind, Debaser… “Wicked players who monster their beloved Pixies. Controlled beautiful bedlam.” Whether this is the soundtrack to your life, or just the best pop you’ve never heard… Whether you’re a diehard fan, or you just like classic sounds played with skill and heart … …this one is not to be missed.
