Lee Thompson - the joy of sax

The joy of sax

He started out on London's 2 Tone scene with a saxophone held together with elastic and ended up playing with one of the UK's biggest Ska revival bands. Meet Madness saxophonist Lee Thompson

We love the 80s

The big hair decade bites back

The 80s was the decade that brought us power ballads, New Wave and unfeasibly big hair and the stars that topped the charts are making a storming comeback at Butlins.

Mersey Beat

The beat goes on

Some of the most celebrated names in UK music history brought you the legendary beat sound originating in Liverpool and made famous by The Beatles. A stellar line up of those original Wild Things are still going strong and appearing at a Butlins near you.

Madchester

They're mad for it!

Butlins tribute bands are so good you can hardly tell them from the real thing. Two of the most popular who appear at everything from 90s Reloaded to Skool Reunion are Manchester indie rock copycats Oasiz and The Clone Roses.
