2006 was a fantastic year for pop music. It also happens to be the year Tribute Night became a thing, 20 years ago.
At the 2026 spring edition of Tribute Night, expect to hear a variety of folks playing a variety of songs released in 2006 in a variety of ways, some faithfully, some surprisingly, some ill-advisedly...
It may not be a year that we immediately think of as historically significant, but have a good delve back and you start to remember what great singles and albums came out that year, whether it was guitar-driven indie bands, funky soul popstrels, electronic dance music, or folk-influenced singer-songwriters.
The night is already at capacity for performers, but if you are happy to join the waiting list, email Zac at
tributenight@hotmail.co.uk.
If you are a musician/singer and you want to be involved, but you don’t know other people to play or sing with, let me know and we’ll have a go at matching you up with others.
If you have an audio/video recording of yourself performing any song relevant to this or a previous Tribute Night that you are happy to share, send me a link to post on the Tribute Night Facebook page. Just for fun, not a requirement for participation!
Thank you for your continued support of this frivolous thing we call Tribute Night.
As usual, there is no admission fee, but donations will be collected during the interval – suggested donation £5 – cash, card, or QR code to PayPal.
All donations go to the Rising Sun Arts Centre, which is a registered charity funded mostly by its own earned income and staffed by volunteers.
Doors open at 8pm for a prompt 8:30pm start.
For your diaries, a reminder of the next few nights in 2026:
