Disco Inferno

Disco Inferno take their image, as well as their music, very seriously and therefore take to the stage wearing the most ridiculous (but, sadly, completely accurate!) 1970's clothes, wigs, sideburns and make up. They perform many classic disco party songs like "YMCA", "Car Wash", "Celebration", "Kung Fu Fighting", "Boogie Nights", and other hits by Chic, Stevie Wonder, The Bee Gees, Abba, Earth Wind And Fire, The Jacksons, etc. Guaranteed to produce party fever!

There may be a few 1970's bands on the professional circuit, but DISCO INFERNO can rightly claim to be the most original! They have earned a great reputation on the live circuit with their superb show. Their recent acclaimed performance at the Myrtle Park Festival, Bradford, supporting Edwin Starr attracted an audience of around 12,000 people, and other recent shows have included support slots for Culture Club and Robbie Williams!

Disco Inferno perform a set of around 90 minutes or mix and matched as part of their main function band. Background music can be provided with no problem, on CD or MiniDisc, and they have access to an excellent quality PA system. The band comprises keyboards, drums, bass, guitar and two lead singers (one male, one female).
