Badboys
Judging by the name, you would think ‘Bad Boys’ is some cheesy semi-professional boyband. WRONG! They are 5 young guys who have a passion for Rock music and the 5th of September they will be performing a bunch of Rock covers. ‘What you see is what you get. We just play what we want to play, and if we can entertain people with that at the same time, cheers!’ Their repertoire mainly consists of 80’s & 90’s Rock music like AC/DC , Bon Jovi, Guns N’ Roses, Kiss, The Offspring and Van Halen. So if you want to sing along with some great Rock classics, be sure to see them the 5th of September in Simplon!
Pepper
Pepper is a Soul / Funk / Pop cover-band consisting of five musicians. Pepper breaks down the house, with songs by Michael Jackson, Stevie wonder, but also Jamie Lidell. If you feel like dancing, you have to be there!
