Lock up your daughters as New York’s Tragedy hit the UK, ready to rock you out with … the Bee Gees back catalogue?!

Bridging the gap between metal and disco, Tragedy will serenade you and at the same time blow your mind (and speakers!) with their heavy interpretations of Bee Gees tracks.

The All Metal Tribute to the Bee Gees have taken the US by storm; swinging from disco balls and playing earth-shattering riffs, whilst paying homage to the dons of disco.

American crowds loved what really shouldn’t work and following support slots in the UK with the mighty Wildhearts and Electric Six, Tragedy have taken the baton and now embark on their own headline tour.

More than just a tribute act, Tragedy is a concept and for the band a way of life. Robin Gibbens – frontman extraordinaire explains: “Although we named ourselves ‘Tragedy: All Metal Tribute to the Bee Gees’ we don't actually recreate anything that anyone has ever seen before. 

"We are a fierce rock n roll juggernaut that has to be seen - and be FELT - to be believed!”

Renowned for their epic stage shows, Tragedy, not surprisingly, combine the unthinkable. Gibbens continues: “If you want to know what it's like to be tied to the tracks while a thousand ton freight train full of guitars, glam, and glitter is hurtling toward you at break neck speed, then we implore you - come and see us live.”

Expect the unexpected from a Tragedy show. As you enter the band’s world you’ll be seduced by the glamour of 70s disco while at the same time overcome by the power of metal… don’t say we didn’t warn you!
