Some of the bands musicians have performed with artistes of the stature of Chakademus and Pliers, Gregory Isaacs and Musical Youth, Maxi Priest, Tipper Irie, John Holt, Steel Pulse, Bitty Mclean and Freddie McGregor to name a few.

The band has gained a huge following of loyal fans over the years, they were even asked to perform at the prestigious JB's venue in Dudley three times in five months which is rare to say the least. This really says a lot about the quality of this excellent band.

Take That Tribute Bands: That's Life

Take That tribute bands are plentiful but 'That's Life' stand out from the norm in this overcrowded marketplace. These four young guys hit the tribute scene about a year ago and have been taking the nation by storm ever since. They've quickly become one of the most popular Take That tribute bands in the UK.

Half of the band have been semi-finalists in popular television talent shows like X Factor and Pop Idol. This is a high-energy, non-stop, fully choreographed tribute to one of the countries best loved bands.

Their vocals are so close to the originals that they even have to sing a couple of tracks with no accompaniment to prove that it's actually them singing totally live. I suppose this is the ultimate compliment.

The band fully deserve this praise as they rehearsed the show for months prior to launching themselves onto the tribute landscape. They wanted to make sure that everything was just right.

The band use a top of the range sound system and stage lighting.
