Blondie Tribute

Blondie bridged punk, new wave, disco and pop, which means a Blondie tribute has something for the rock fans and the dancers. Debbie Harry's cool, effortless style is a gift for a themed night.

About our Blondie tribute

Our Blondie tribute is performed by Bonnie (Valbona), a multi-award-winning vocalist with years of experience entertaining audiences in the UK and abroad.

Formats, sets and timings

Bonnie performs Blondie as a solo show in two 45-minute sets or one 60-minute set. Because she also performs Lady Gaga, the two can be combined into a multi-tribute night. Two 45-minute sets leave a natural interval for a buffet or cake cutting. The 60-minute option is best for a shorter event or a single big moment.

The songs guests will expect

Every Blondie show should include the songs people know from the late 70s and early 80s, such as:

  • Heart of Glass
  • Call Me
  • Atomic
  • Sunday Girl
  • Maria
  • The Tide Is High

Set lists vary, so ask to see the current one before you book.

Highlights from the act's profile

  • She reached the final of The Voice of Albania in 2013 and was a boot camp finalist on The X Factor in 2009.
  • She was voted best female artiste in the Wakefield district.
  • The set includes Denis and Hanging on the Telephone as well as the obvious hits.

See the full profile for video and more detail.

Space and set-up

Ask us what equipment comes with the act and what the venue needs to provide. Allow roughly an hour for set-up, ideally before the room fills.

Where a Blondie tribute works best

  • 60th birthdays: Guests who were teenagers in the late 70s will love it.
  • 80s and new wave nights: A natural headliner for a decade party.
  • Club and pub nights: Great singalongs with a rock edge.
  • Mixed-age parties: Maria and Heart of Glass still fill dance floors.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is this a themed night where a Blondie and Lady Gaga double bill would land well?
  • Does the venue suit a high-energy new wave set?
  • Is the performance area indoors, outdoors or under a marquee?
  • Is there a sound limiter, and at what level?

We'll pass your answers to the performer.

Before the day

  • Months ahead: secure the date.
  • A month ahead: confirm set times and where the Blondie tribute will set up.
  • A week ahead: send arrival time, parking details and a contact name for the night.

Acts that pair well

Good companions on the same bill include Cyndi Lauper Tribute, Madonna Tribute or Lady GaGa Tribute.

Quick answers

Is this a full band show?

Ask about the current format. Many tribute shows run to backing tracks with the act's own PA.

We quote each event individually, with no hidden agency booking fees.
