The Australian Pink Floyd Show

Having sold over four million tickets in concerts that have taken place in 35 countries, The Australian Pink Floyd Show is rightfully hailed as one of the most in demand touring entities currently operating; The Times described them as “The Gold Standard”.  This act is so good they were even engaged by David Gilmour to perform at his 50th birthday celebration!

The band has spent a long time getting to this level; the years have been invested in getting things right: the sound, the feel, the experience.  Whilst the Daily Telegraph rightly described them as being at “the top of the tribute band tree”, the journey has been a long one and began in 1988 in Adelaide.  Lee Smith, a local guitarist obsessed with Pink Floyd, and needing to augment his band [featuring drummer Grant Ross and bassist Trevor Turton] placed an ad in Allan’s Music store.  It read: “Vocalist and Keyboardist required for band. Professional attitude expected. We only play Pink Floyd”.  Steve Mac and Jason Sawford each saw the ad and soon the now five-piece band commenced regular weekly practice.  Whilst learning and practicing the songs they constantly referred to Lee’s extensive collection of Pink Floyd albums and bootleg recordings. They also started to create the sounds necessary to perform Pink Floyd correctly, and this became, and still is, one of the most important aspects of the band.

TAPFS have constantly striven to seek out new audiences and turn in jaw-dropping performances to reconnect people with the music that they love.  Each year brings more innovation, hard work, and great crowds, demonstrating that it is still all about the great music of Pink Floyd and delivering the absolute best performance each and every night.
