About This Event

Class Of '79 will perform at Platform in Morecambe on 28 May 2027. The act features musicians with extensive experience in the punk, new wave, and ska genres, promising an authentic tribute experience. The performance will showcase classic tracks from these influential music styles.

“Imagine taking the greatest punk, new wave and ska tracks ever recorded, squeezing them onto a classic double LP, inviting your mates round for a few beers and turning the volume up to 11. That's exactly what watching Class of ’79 feels like.” — Keith Newman, Radio Northumberland

Unlike most tribute acts, the members of Class of ’79 have decades of experience playing in the bands who provide much of their set list, giving them a pretty unrivalled authenticity.

Steve Crittall has played with The Godfathers, The Selecter and UK Subs, while Phil Thompson is well known for his flamboyant guitar work with The Rezillos, Department S and The Vapors.

Behind the kit, Simon Bowley brings almost three decades of experience from Eddie & The Hot Rods and Department S, and bassist Mike Lea's musical journey has taken him from Manchester favourites Sugar Bullets to post-punk pioneers Department S.

Doors 7pm. Show 8pm
