Brit Floyd: The Pink Floyd Tribute Show

Brit Floyd is a UK based Pink Floyd tribute band formed in 2010 by Chas Cole, Managing Director of CMP Entertainment, and Damian Darlington, the band's Musical Director. Brit Floyd has toured in the UK and several European countries. The stage presentation, comprising an elaborate light show, projections and inflatables, is loosely based on Pink Floyd's 1994 The Division Bell Tour, often referred to as the "Pulse" tour after the title of the album and DVD of the tour.
