Huddersfield’s Smile Bar, renowned for its exceptional live music shows and tribute acts is set to host an extraordinary evening on Saturday, November 30th.

Known for delivering unforgettable nights, Smile Bar will elevate the experience with not one, but three Australian-themed tribute bands.

‘I Got You’

Opening the night will be Split Frenz, a tribute to the beloved Kiwi party band, Split Enz.

With their brightly coloured suits, trumpets, congas, and 80s synths, Split Frenz captures the joy and chaos of the original band.

Their performances, both raucous and witty, have earned rave reviews and sell-out shows at venues like Retro Bar in Manchester and the Waterloo Music Bar in Blackpool.

Emulating the energetic and heartwarming style of Split Enz, Split Frenz promises a vibrant and unforgettable start to the evening.

‘Don’t Dream It’s Over’

Next on the bill is Crowded Scouse, Britain’s number one tribute to Crowded House. Recently praised by Neil Finn himself for “keeping the music alive,” Crowded Scouse brings the spontaneous and energetic live sound of Crowded House to the stage.

Known for their engaging performances, they recreate the essence of the band that fans have adored since their legendary final gig on the steps of the Sydney Opera House.

Regulars at tribute venues and festivals across the UK for over 20 years, Crowded Scouse guarantees a night of fun and nostalgia, with a set list that will remind attendees of just how many Crowded House songs they love.

‘New Sensation’

The event will be headlined by INXS GB, a six-piece band dedicated to replicating the iconic sound and feel of the legendary Australian group, INXS.

With their lead singer emulating Michael Hutchence’s distinctive style and presence, INXS GB promises a night filled with pulsating rhythms and powerful vocals.

Fans can expect to hear classic hits such as “Need You Tonight,” “Never Tear Us Apart,” and “Devil Inside,” performed with unmatched precision and passion.
