Here’s what The Stage newspaper have to say about Popwork 80’s…
“Popwork 80’s closed this first date in the national showcase autumn calendar. Complete with eighties fashions, and kicking off in thumping style with a version of the Frankie Goes to Hollywood sex anthem Relax, Popwork 80’s made a compelling case for a place in the genre tribute market.”

“We hired Popwork Party Band for my 50th birthday party. I corresponded with the band before the performance which really put my mind at rest and helped select an 80’s themed playlist. The band arrived in plenty of time to set up and sound check – we had hired a marquee with stage and the band ran a ‘live feed’ into the adjacent club house where the bar was, which made sure that everyone could hear the live music, and a before and after set of recorded music.
The performance was absolutely first rate – every one of my guests said that the quality of the performance was absolutely first class, including stage presence, professionalism and the quality of the music. The PA was perfect, producing a great sound which enabled everyone to dance without ever being overpowered.
I cannot speak highly enough of our experience on the night and would recommend Dan and the rest of Popwork to anyone (private individual or corporate) looking for a live band to perform at a wedding, party, charity night or similar function.”
– David Dodge, Private Party, Buxton, Derbyshire
“Popwork 80’s’ were truly brilliant at our event! They turned up early, made everything easy, were a really friendly bunch of guys and extremely professional. Our 80’s party was an absolute triumph and Popwork 80’s were a major factor to it’s success. People danced from the 1st song and it just got better and better. Everybody was asking who they were all night and in fact since we’ve all been back at work, so I would imagine they might be receiving a few more bookings from the York area. Just Brilliant! Thank you.”
“Hi Guys, I am just about recovered from my birthday party last night and getting ready to go out again. I love it when my friends have a good time and I think last night was up there with the best. Popwork’s approach was 100% professional from the moment they arrived right up to going home in the early hours of the morning. I don’t think anyone can say they didn’t enjoy it – everyone danced and joined in. Great choice of music which really hit the spot with the audience and well presented. Let’s hope we can get you back to North Cheshire very soon. Thanks again.”
– Graham Bowcock
