RE FLOYD

Event Information

We think next to Pink Floyd, this tribute act is as good as it gets. They played last year and we just had to get them back.

Re|Floyd vocalist
Guitar and vocals
Archie‘s first single was “See Emily Play”, played endlessly on his Fisher Price record player. From the age of 15, he worked as a stage tech and sound engineer at various venues. Then ran his own recording studio.

A TV talent show winner and multi-instrumentalist, he has worked in Pink Floyd, Jimi Hendrix and Moody Blues tribute bands. Plus a number of solo acoustic shows.

Not one for “gear talk”, he does admit to using Levinson, Martin and Godin guitars, Marshall amps, Roland, Boss and Digitech effects, and Shure mics.

ReFloyd guitarist
Guitar
Bill taught himself the guitar by learning “The Wall” from start to finish. Then worked his way through the Floyd catalogue. During his 35 years on guitar, he has played a number of major venues, including the Roundhouse and Jazz Café. And done session work for TV.

Gear-wise, Bill plays his Fender Strat through a special blend of boutique and analogue pedals, from Analog Man, among others. All with a modded Fender Blues Deluxe amp.

ReFloyd keyboard player
Keyboards
Alex has been performing, writing, and recording music for decades. The last one, playing at chateaux and events across southwest France.

When Re|Floyd said they were looking for a new keyboard player, Alex jumped at the chance. He arrived, armed with handwritten sax solos and a Nord keyboard full of specialist patches. And got the job by the end of the first song.

ReFloyd bassist
Bass
Dietmar cut his teeth on the bass on southern rock, blues, jazz-funk and musicals. He then worked during his university years as a live and studio sound engineer for OPUS (“Live Is Life”), and other Austrian acts.

Returning to the bass in 2017, Dietmar joined Re|Floyd in 2020 and worked also with The Round Window, who released their debut CD in 2022, with the second CD released in 2023. He plays Warwick and Ibanez basses through Trace Elliot SMX and Laney amps and cabs.

ReFloyd drummer
Drums
Chaz started drumming aged three, but had to wait another six years for his first real drum kit. As a teenager, his band Neversed supported THE Status Quo at Trentham Park.

Following his diploma and degree at the London College of Music, Chaz worked in function bands around the UK. With Re|Floyd, he has the chance to pay homage to a band that’s given us so many records which have stood the test of time.

ReFloyd backing singer
Backing vocals
Hollie was captivated by “The Wall” since before she could speak. In 2018, at Hatfield Forest’s Woodfest, she heard Re|Floyd for the first time – and fought her way to the front of a packed crowd.

When given the chance to audition, she dove headfirst into the music and dynamic. She also writes songs and has taken up the piano.


Michelle has been fortunate enough to pursue her passion for music by singing in various bands since the age of 18, covering many different genres from Motown to House Music.

Over the years, she has been part of a successful covers band, a Blondie tribute band and also sings the blues.
