R.E.M. formed in 1980, in Athens, Georgia and by the mid-nineties earned the tagline ‘the biggest band on the planet’ from the music press.��
They pioneered the alternative rock scene with relentless touring and a distinctive sound and entered the 90s mainstream without compromising their artistic vision. They remain as relevant today as ever.

Their music is instantly recognisable: ringing guitar lines, tasteful and clinical drumming, melodic bass, and sublime harmonies coupled with poetic (and political) lead vocals.��
Continuing as a trio after the departure of drummer Bill Berry in 1997, R.E.M. broke up in September 2011, just as they had started: as friends. They have ruled out ever re-forming. ��R.E.M. by Stipe, the Definitive Tribute reflect the core of R.E.M.: four highly-experienced musicians who embody Berry, Buck, Mills and Stipe, capturing the presence and performances of the band. ��
As huge fans of the band they are committed to holding true to the sound and overall aesthetic of R.E.M., so that fans, old and new, can experience the magic of hearing these songs played live with care, conviction, and affection.��They are joined on stage, as R.E.M. were, by additional musicians to help bring album tracks to life on stage. Each set-list is different, but every show celebrates this timeless music for fans of R.E.M.
