Happy Mondaze are a well-established tribute band that has been performing regularly for over 10 years They were the first ever tribute band to bravely emulate the Manchester legends ‘Happy Mondays’ and are still considered to be the best around, with many glowing recommendations including some of the original band members themselves. They have performed to audiences of up to 15,000 and played many prestigious venues and festivals over the years including several O2 Academy venues, The Robin 2, Victoria Warehouse, Liverpool Sound City, Heaton Park and Spike Island Consisting of a full 5 piece live band including their very own ‘Bez’ they authentically recreate that dance-infused indie that encapsulates the early 90s rave culture.
