Live set of 1980s pop covers and originals by Electronique at The Chapelhay Tavern's Sunday afternoon session.
Electronique plays The Chapelhay Tavern on Sunday 8 November, from 4:00pm to 7:00pm. It's a live act built around authentic, classic 1980s music, and the setlist runs through the era's biggest hits: ABC's 'All of My Heart', Yazoo's 'Only You', Soft Cell's 'Tainted Love', Bronski Beat's 'Smalltown Boy', New Order's 'Blue Monday', Pet Shop Boys' 'West End Girls', David Bowie's 'Ashes to Ashes' and John Foxx's 'Underpass'. There are more than 85 covers at the ready, alongside original material, so the set draws from a deep well of the decade.
One of the things that sets this apart from a standard cover set is how it works with the room. Fans are invited to listen to the original songs and suggest their own 'must-play' requests, so the setlist can shift based on what the crowd wants to hear. If there's a particular 80s track you've been wanting to hear live, it's worth having it in mind.
The show is part of the Chapelhay Tavern's weekly Sunday afternoon live music sessions, a series of relaxed sets by solo artists, duos and small live acts across acoustic, pop, rock and sax-led styles. The tavern pitches them as a way to enjoy live music over a late afternoon drink, so it's more of a casual, daytime affair than a late-night gig. If you're into the 80s, it's a good way to spend a Sunday afternoon without having to stay out half the night.
