About

The Tribute Train started out as a tribute band to the music of the legendary Kool & the Gang, who scored hit after hit in the 70s and 80s with classics like ‘Ladies night’, ‘Celebration’ and ’Joanna’. While enjoying playing these songs,  the itch for bringing more tribute flavours to our audience was strong. In line with the funky  Kool vibe the tribute to the disco songs of Nile Rodgers & Chic was the next logical choice.  Setting out for an evening full of wonderful music, adding the soulful vibes of the Aretha Franklin songs guarantees for a night to remember. The Tribute Train formation consists of eleven dedicated musicians, including a three-piece horn section. Their upbeat sound is backed by three sweet female voices!

Each band member has a proven track record in the (semi-)professional music scene. With the Tribute Train, they're united by their shared love for funk, disco and soul music. Together they go all out to put on a festival or theatre show that will make you smile, dance and "feel the love"!
