Once More Into The Bleach are experienced professionals and are renowned as
the OFFICIAL Deborah Harry and Blondie tribute band.
They have performed their energy packed show all over the
country and abroad. Sam, who sports the trademark blonde hair and
sexy pout, performs the part of Deborah Harry.
Her look and style has even fooled the most dedicated Blondie fan
in thinking they are seeing the real Deborah Harry on stage. The
band wear the classic Parallel Lines look of white shirt and black
trousers with ratty ties and baseball boots, whilst Sam copies the
costumes of Deborah Harry (some given to her by the lady herself!).
This consists of 9 changes (depending on venue).
The show is a full production affair with illuminated backdrop,
full lighting show and a TurboSound 4.5k PA rig. Also when appropriate, technical
back up is provided by a designated sound and lighting assistant.
Into The Bleach are a unique Blondie tribute that can change their
show to tailor to the venue/clients requirements.
‘BLEACH’ are now considered Europe's foremost BLONDIE
tribute band. They have played many prestigious venues across the
country including The Robin Hood, The Brook and The Limelight, Playhouse
Theatre, Marine Theatre as well as performing at many private functions
and corporate events which include The British Embassy in Moscow.
The show appeals to a wide range of music lovers of all ages that
must not be missed.
This is full on, old school, new wave, pop-punk entertainment.
So dig out your thigh high boots and bottles of peroxide. Stop "Hanging
on the Telephone" and book this band to feel the "Presence"
of real entertainment because "One Way or Another" BLEACH
are going to make your evening truly "ATOMIC"!
Clem Burke (Blondie's drummer) described Sam's voice as being "Fantastic.
Sam should be on Broadway playing Debbie. Her version of Maria was
amazing. Pitch Perfect. It's not an easy song to sing."
The band have also been written about on Blondie's official website
and are also on the same management books as Blondie.
