AD/HD are a Bon Scott era AC/DC tribute band based in Bristol / Portishead in the UK. We perform a variety of covers from all of AC/DC's 1970's albums up to and including Highway to Hell, along with a couple of the most popular Brian Johnson era songs. You can see our current set list below.
We play loud and with loads of energy - we're not a quiet band and generally hospitalise an average of 1 person per gig due to AC/DC-volume-love-noise-mayhem-ear-bleeding-loveliness (it's a clinical term, all the band are doctors (of talking shite)) - while making them as authentic as possible.
We play all over the UK - check out the gigs section below.
We're available to play at pubs, clubs, festivals, parties, weddings, works events, bar mitzvahs, funerals - you name it, we'll consider playing anywhere on the planet to anybody as long as there's some money and booze involved. If you'd like us to play at your establishment or event, please get in touch with us at or through Facebook to discuss prices.
