More than just an ordinary Pink Floyd tribute band, The Darkside of Pink Floyd entertain audiences with a fantastic light show and passionate performances.
Due to the demand for their exquisite reproduction of Pink Floyd’s classic music, The Darkside of Pink Floyd are a regular feature at major National music venues, festivals and theatres. They were also the first band to play a live public performance inside the prehistoric caves of the world famous Kents Cavern and they had a sell-out concert deep underground at Carnglaze Caverns as part of their highly acclaimed ‘Echoes of the Past’ tour.
The band are regulars at the World’s Biggest and Best Tribute Festival, having played to capacity crowds at Glastonbudget, and have been asked to headline the main stage this year. They have also headlined at BMAD, one of the biggest Music & Motorbike Festivals in the UK. Nominated as Best Tribute Act in the South West Music Awards.
“The music took you to planet Floyd and kept you there” – Music in Leicester.
“The best tribute of all for one of the world’s greatest groups” – North Devon Journal.
“A more intense tribute band than The Darkside of Pink Floyd is hard to imagine” – The Stage.
The Darkside of Pink Floyd are currently playing in theatres throughout the UK and improving their Show with a few theatrical effects, more lighting, extra equipment and new songs to add to the already extensive set list. Exciting ? Absolutely . . .

Showcase Review
Trevor George Entertainment Review 2013 Major Live Event – by Derek Smith from: The Stage A more intense tribute band than The Darkside of Pink Floyd it is hard to imagine. Probably much better suited to a slot in the evening session, this was nevertheless an intriguing set from some fine musicians not afraid to tackle […]
Soundalike
True ‘soundalike’ with added self-deprecating skill From: This is North Devon SINCE when did “tribute band” mean “lookalike act”? Surely, isn’t it better to be a “soundalike”? Well it’s certainly better to hear one, especially when the band’s main concern is not how they look. The advantage for The Dark Side of Pink Floyd is […]
Kents Cavern
Caves help complement perfect Pink Floyd classics From: This is South Devon PINK Floyd tribute acts don’t come any more faithful than Darkside, and their decision to play the classic album underground in the caves was a masterstroke. It was a bold decision by the Kents Cavern management to hold their first gig in the […]
Glastonbudget 2013
Glastonbudget Festival Review 2013 by Kevin Gaughan from: Music in Leicester Being the wrong side of middle-aged, I love my Pink Floyd, so The Darkside of Pink Floyd was a band on my ‘essential viewing’ list. The Big Top Marquee was hot, sweaty and packed. No fancy hair-dos or make up here, it was all […]

Review from The Exchange
This review appeared in the Blackmore Vale magazine :- It wasn’t just the music being faithfully reproduced when The Darkside of Pink Floyd stopped off at Sturminster Newton Exchange on Saturday night – the excellent light show and atmospheric video stream used as a backdrop made this a completely immersing experience. The Devon-based tribute band […]
Amazing night at Carnglaze
WOW, what an absolutely amazing night at Carnglaze Caverns – deep underground with the bats flying around. This is definitely one of our favourite atmospheric venues and I’m sure it’s the same for the audience as the emotion was thick in the air (along with the haze from the smoke machine of course). Lots of […]
