The U2 Experience is a slick, accomplished tribute to the live music of the legendary U2, delivered by four highly experienced and dedicated musicians. Based at their own suite of rehearsal/recording studios in the Midlands, the band are centrally placed to perform anywhere within the UK and beyond.
The show is a full set of U2’s best known singles and most loved album tracks, played authentically with minute attention to detail. It features a spectacular sequenced lighting show and backdrop visuals on an LED screen throughout the show.

The band have made quite an impact on the tribute scene, with shows booked across the Midlands and the North, several thousand YouTube video views in a short space of time, and subscribers across five continents. They have also attracted the attention of Graham Baker, U2’s original record company exec (EMI/Island Records), who has visited their studios and attended a recent sell-out gig in Birmingham.
This is his review:
I suppose I should point out that I am a former Senior Record Exec of EMI Records and Island Records London of some 30 years and I did work on the first three (and a half) albums and singles from U2. So I was intrigued to see how good a job these guys made of their ‘tribute’. They did not disappoint. It was terrific, a highly professional performance that they have every right to be proud of. By the opening title I was teleported back 40 years to the four young Irishmen I worked with in the early 80’s.
