Synthmachine

About

Synthmachine are the best 80's synthpop/electronic covers band in the Midlands, playing covers of songs by Depeche Mode, Soft Cell, The Human League, New Order and many more.

Between 2002 and 2014, Julienne, Chris and Dom played and performed as rock band, Pencilface. Then, in 2014, feeling disillusioned and tired with the rock covers they had been playing for so long, and heavily influenced by the BBC Synth Britannia television programme, they decided to embark on a brand new project, and Synthmachine was born.

Since 2014 Synthmachine have gone from strength to strength, building their repertoire from just the handful of songs they performed at their first gigs, to a full evening of 80's electronic wonder, playing gigs at numerous venues and festivals from Sheffield to Oxford.

Synthmachine pride themselves on accurately re-creating the sounds and the atmosphere of the 80's, and taking their audiences on a journey around this amazing decade of extraordinary electronic music. The band continuously strive to develop their sets and further enhance their sounds, for that authentic 80's vibe.
