The Killerz

» Profile

"The Killerz" are one of only a few tribute acts to "The Killers" in the world and prides itself on its overall likeness to the chart topping band.

The music, the look, and the energy the band creates makes you feel like you are watching the real thing. With the added option of a string & brass section for the bigger venues and events you will not find a more accurate interpretation to the award winning band.

Formed in Nov 2008, "The Killerz" were formally known as "Hot Fuss" named after the hugely popular debut album. It's the band member's favorite album which started a love and passion for "The Killers" music. Recently in Sept 2010, the band changed its name so it matched the likeness of their live performances to the real band.

Performing across Europe, the band continues to gather support from their audiences and more impressively "The Killers" supporters.

Receiving rave reviews wherever they play. Described as being as exciting as the real thing by many fans "The Killerz" hope to continue pleasing followers with new and old chart hits like "Mr Brightside", "When You Were Young", "Human" and many more.
Having seen "The Killers" perform, all the members would love the chance to meet there idols personally. At present it is the one ambition that the band is still yet to achieve.

With a true passion and love of what they play "The Killerz" aim is to bring the Las Vegas Superstars to you...
