History

Founded in 1990, Hampshire based Perfect Alibi have been described as 'the definitive Pink Floyd tribute'.

Formed by Dave Blake (lead guitar) they started out playing covers of classic rock songs by Pink Floyd, Marillion, Eagles, Neil Young and many more. Being huge Floyd fans themselves and from the reaction and requests from the audiences, more and more Pink Floyd songs crept their way in to the set until it got difficult to mix other material in.

Realising this, a theatre concert of solely Pink Floyd material was staged as a tester. Following an incredibly positive reaction, Perfect Alibi emerged as a totally dedicated Pink Floyd tribute and has wowed audiences right through the nineties and noughties.

As 2009 drew to a close, co-founder and vocalist Rick Gauntlett decided it was time to step down. Rather than fold the band, they began a search for a replacement which they found in the shape of Alan Robertson, a Scot living in Southsea. Alan was a huge fan of Pink Floyd and had been playing in bands for years so the fit was ideal.

Now, in 2011, Alan is also joined by new faces Brett Cox on bass and Katie Ellen on vocals. The rest of the band (Graeme, Martin, Mike and Carly) have done countless gigs and the mixture of established and new brings a new level of freshness and life.

With Perfect Alibi, you have the chance to hear Pink Floyd songs as they are meant to be heard. The band are now widely respected and appreciated in their field, giving the audience a truly authentic reproduction of the music of Pink Floyd, with the emphasis on capturing the live Pink Floyd sound.

                     With well over 40 songs in their repertoire, spectacular lighting, lasers and projections, this is a show not to be missed!

But don't just take our word for it...

"Have recently seen 'Brit Floyd' at Plymouth Pavilions. Yes, their light show is bigger, but they didn't bring the lasers; and to be honest, they didn't put in the same effort that you did. I much preferred your gig."

"After seeing the gig of the decade at the O2 last Thursday (Roger Waters - The Wall) we didn't know what to expect but were blown away by you guys! Awesome sound - a superb show. We'll make sure we spread the word"
Di, Frome, May 2011
