Echoes of Pink Floyd – 60 Years of Pink Floyd

Iconic British rock band, Pink Floyd left an indelible mark on the world, inspiring generations with their ground-breaking soundscapes and thought-provoking lyrics. 2025 marks the diamond anniversary of Pink Floyd's inception, and to honour this milestone every era of Pink Floyd's illustrious career will be celebrated in grand style in a brand new concert production by Adelaide’s own Echoes of Pink Floyd.

Echoes of Pink Floyd will take audiences on a mesmerizing journey through six decades of Pink Floyd's unparalleled musical legacy. From the psychedelic sounds of the 1960s to the progressive rock masterpieces and stadium-shaking anthems of their latter years, this show will capture the true essence of Pink Floyd's evolution with precision and passion.

"This show is a testament to the enduring impact of Pink Floyd's music," said lead guitarist Daniel Hunter. "For six decades, their innovative sound and boundary-pushing creativity have captivated audiences around the world. We're thrilled to bring dedicated Floyd fans together to celebrate this milestone anniversary."

Echoes of Pink Floyd stands as Australia’s foremost tribute dedicated to honouring the legendary band's monumental legacy and has garnered widespread acclaim across the country since their inception in 2009.

Echoes of Pink Floyd's line-up boasts seasoned musicians and ardent Pink Floyd enthusiasts: Daniel Hunter (lead guitar), Jason Miller (drums and vocals), Paul Bindig (keyboards), Mark MacNab (rhythm and acoustic guitar), Matt Goodluck (vocals), Will Byrne (Bass and vocals), , Daniel Modica (keyboard and saxophone) and Bree Gregory, Rossella Fanelli and Montana Sharp (Backing Vocals).

Critics have hailed them as "the next best thing to a genuine Floyd experience" (Bendigo Weekly), "Australia’s best Pink Floyd Tribute Act" (Eventalaide.com), and "a true credit to the original musicians" (Rogue Inc - Perth). With an unwavering dedication to faithfully replicate the sights and sounds of Pink Floyd, Echoes of Pink Floyd meticulously synchronize their performances with spectacular visuals, offering an immersive experience akin to attending a genuine Pink Floyd concert.

Since embarking on national tours in 2014, their lovingly-crafted performances have captivated audiences nationwide, drawing praise such as "masterful," “absolute genius,” “spine-tingling,” and "absolutely the best live musical trip any Floyd fan can go on," with audiences likening their performance to that of the original band.

Don't miss your chance to be part of history as Echoes of Pink Floyd celebrate 60 years of Pink Floyd in style.
