tribute bands
Cover act ensembles
A tribute band is a musical group that performs the songs and replicates the style of a famous artist or band, often adopting similar costumes, staging, and mannerisms: The Beatles tribute band played every album in order.
Unlike cover bands, which play songs from various artists, tribute bands dedicate themselves to one act.
Some achieve substantial followings of their own.
