FEW acts can match the 20 year span of number one hits of the sensational Blondie.

Blondie had six UK number one singles, two UK number one albums and six top 10 albums, and Heart Of Glass alone sold over a million copies.

Now, arguably Blondie’s best tribute act – Atomic Blondie, is hitting the stage at the Marine Theatre this Friday, August 19 for an explosive show.

Blondie emerged as one of the the greatest iconic rock and pop bands of the late 1970s new wave punk scene by defying easy categorisation.

They scored their first major hits with reggae and rock/disco songs and wrote great rock hooks and brilliant ironic lyrics.

Blondie had the hippest clothes and the coolest hair and blonde bombshell Debbie went from the pages of Punk magazine to being on the cover of just about every mainstream publication.

Cardiff based Atomic Blondie, now also hotly tipped as one of the UK’s leading Blondie tribute bands, have performed all over the UK and Europe.

The show features all the classic hits plus trademark Debbie Harry costumes, including the famous bin liner outfit and vulture tee as seen in the video for Atomic.

The band has studied Blondie in great detail to recreate the next best thing and make the tribute as authentic as possible.
