A tribute night with Kazabian playing Kasabian and Arctic Monkeyz playing Arctic Monkeys at Social on Humber Street.
Kazabian and Arctic Monkeyz are playing Social on Friday 12 February, a double-bill of tribute acts built around two of the UK's biggest indie rock bands. It's a night for the songs you know, with the two bands splitting the bill.
Kazabian go first, playing the band's original form with hits like 'Club Foot', 'Fire' and 'Underdog'. They're billed as one of the most accurate tribute acts in the world, and the original Kasabian reportedly called them 'Frighteningly Good!!!' — a line they've kept front and centre. The act has also been endorsed by Tom Meighan and Serge Pizzorno, the two voices that defined the band's early years.
Arctic Monkeyz follow with a celebration of the Sheffield legends, running from 'I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor' through to 'Do I Wanna Know?'. It's a long stretch of ground to cover, from the fast, wordy indie of the first record to the slower, heavier sound of the later ones, so you'll hear the band's shift in style across the set.
