The Runaway Killers began life as ProtoStereo in 2014. Regarded amongst many venues as one of the highest quality modern rock cover bands on the live entertainment circuit, they held their audiences with their renditions of some of the biggest hits of the last 20 years. ProtoStereo’s attention to musical detail, high energy and passion kept supporters and clients coming back for more. An uncanny likeness to a certain two bands was soon apparent and in 2016 they began a double tribute to Muse and The Killers, playing festivals, theatres, and venues all over the country. After a few years, in 2019, they separated the tributes, giving birth to Simulation Muse and The Runaway Killers.
Visually and instrumentally authentic, they offer the massive sounds of The Killers, a band that is known by audiences of all ages. Frontman George Foster delivers not just rock style but backs it up with the highest quality vocal. High-energy, with a striking on-stage dynamic, The Runaway Killers are one of the most sought-after tribute bands around today. Delivering their powerful shows around the country, the five-star band has gained years of experience entertaining corporate clients and individuals at events and venues of all shapes and sizes. A few highlights include their own headline show at The Orchard Theatre (Dartford), Dartford Festival, Rock The Mote Festival (Maidstone), Rock The Park (Wrexham), Chinnerys, Asylum, Leo's Red Lion, The Penny Theatre, Sausage & Cider Festival, Fields of Gold Festival and a live interview and airplay on BBC Radio Kent.
