After eight successful years performing across the coast, the acclaimed live band New Tricks is proud to announce the launch of their brand-new project, The BritPop Authority - a vibrant tribute to one of the most influential musical movements of the 1990s.
Celebrating the energy, swagger, and creativity of the Brit Pop era, The BritPop Authority delivers authentic live performances featuring classics from Pulp, Ocean Colour Scene, Cast, Primal Scream, and, of course, Blur and Oasis - with a respectful nod to the trailblazing bands that paved the way, such as The Jam and The Clash.
Each member of the group grew up with this music, shaping their sound and passion. “This isn’t about silly wigs or daft gimmicks,” says lead singer Pete Carter. “It’s about great music - capturing the swagger of Oasis and the innovation of Blur.”
This new venture doesn’t mean the end of New Tricks, well-known for their wide range of covers of 70s, 80s and 90s classics spanning from The Rolling Stones to Robbie Williams. The BritPop Authority will run alongside New Tricks, catering to tribute nights, festivals, weddings, and special events, offering audiences a nostalgic yet fresh live experience.
Carter added: “After the success of New Tricks and the revived interest in the Brit Pop era, it felt like the perfect time to put on our Gazelles and throw our bucket hats into the tribute band arena with the music we love. With an Irish man, two Brits and a Spaniard in the band, we can tailor our set for both Spanish and English audiences with classics they’ll recognise.”

Directions are always helpful.
Yes, we’re completely self contained. We bring our own PA system to all of our gigs as well as a simple lighting rig.
Yes, we’re happy to play music from a laptop before, after and between our sets. We’re happy to choose the music ourselves or let the client choose the music
All of them.
We normally arrive 2 hours before the performance to set up. We normally perform 2 x 45 minutes or 2 x 60 minute sets. We’re happy to play a bit longer or shorter but we’ve found that these set times suit us and our audiences best.
We’re happy to play outside but we ask for shade, a flat level surface and a power supply close to the performance area
We can learn specific songs before the event but we usually limit this to 2 songs. The clients are welcome to pick a set list from our repertoire or let us choose the music for them.
Previous customers would describe us as a high energy group that loves to get the audience on their feet dancing.
