Blackstar is the Central Coast's premier David Bowie tribute experience. While we do strive to reproduce the album sound for many of the songs in our extensive repertoire - our primary focus is to capture the energy and excitement of a live David Bowie show. From the funky blue-eyed soul grooves of Fame, Young Americans, and Golden Years, to the stadium rock anthems such as Ziggy Stardust, All the Young Dudes, and Under Pressure we can cover all of the many facets of Bowie's exceptional and storied career. We keep people on their feet and deliver an exciting experience for casual and die-hard Bowie fans alike. We have custom-tailored sets to best fit the venue and event and can provide up to 3 hours of entertainment.Kyle Fegley

Drums & PercussionFrom the moment they launched into their set, it was evident that Blackstar was no ordinary tribute act. Lead singer Kyle Fegley's vocals were a haunting reincarnation of Bowie's unique timbre, seamlessly transitioning between his various personas and vocal styles. The band's musicianship was equally impressive, meticulously replicating every intricate arrangement and intricate guitar riff in the setlist spanning Bowie's vast discography.
Blackstar are the torchbearers of David Bowie's enduring legacy. With their incredible musicianship, attention to detail, and sheer passion for their craft, they have elevated the art of tribute to new heights, ensuring that the Starman's celestial influence will continue to shine bright for today's audiences lucky enough to catch their show.
