THE WORLD-RENOWNED AUSTRALIAN PINK FLOYD RETURNS TO RUTH ECKERD HALL

The Australian Pink Floyd Show (TAPFS)—the world’s premier Pink Floyd tribute act—returns to Clearwater for an unforgettable night celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Wish You Were Here. More than a concert, this is a full-scale experience featuring dazzling lasers, towering inflatables, immersive visuals, and the timeless music of Pink Floyd performed with note-for-note perfection.

For nearly four decades, TAPFS has astonished audiences across the globe, selling over five million tickets in more than thirty-five countries and earning critical acclaim as the definitive Pink Floyd tribute. The Sunday Times Culture hailed them as “the most popular tribute band in the world,” while Prog Magazine praised them as “a phenomenon to be witnessed live… almost enough to make you forget you haven’t been watching Pink Floyd, but a surrogate band.”

Formed in Adelaide, Australia in 1988, TAPFS quickly transcended the limits of the tribute scene. Their connection to Pink Floyd’s own legacy runs deep—they were invited to perform at David Gilmour’s 50th birthday celebration, joined on stage by both Gilmour and the late Rick Wright. Over the years, they have collaborated with Pink Floyd touring musicians including bassist Guy Pratt and vocalist Durga McBroom. Lorelei McBroom, who toured with Pink Floyd on the Momentary Lapse of Reason and Delicate Sound of Thunder world tours, has been a member of TAPFS for more than fifteen years, further blurring the line between tribute and original.

Their journey has taken them from Adelaide’s pubs and clubs to the world’s greatest stages, where they have shared festival lineups with the likes of Aerosmith, Metallica, The Police, The Killers, and Supertramp. Beyond the stage, TAPFS musicians have also recorded with legends including Rick Wakeman, Alice Cooper, and The London Orion Orchestra, contributing to the album Pink Floyd’s Wish You Were Here Symphonic, recorded at the famed Abbey Road Studios.

Critics and fans alike agree that TAPFS is far more than a tribute band. Their dedication to precision, artistry, and atmosphere has created a truly immersive production that captures the grandeur of a Pink Floyd show. With every detail—whether sonic, visual, or emotional—crafted to perfection, they have inspired a whole new generation of acts, yet remain unmatched in scale, ambition, and authenticity.

On Friday, September 5 at Ruth Eckerd Hall, audiences will be transported into the world of Pink Floyd with a show that combines spectacular visuals, flawless musicianship, and the emotional power of songs that have defined generations. Don’t miss the chance to experience the world’s most successful, most acclaimed, and most authentic Pink Floyd tribute show—a night that promises to be nothing short of iconic.
