BOOTLEG BLONDIE is
Europe’s No.1 Deborah Harry and Blondie tribute band and the only Blondie
tribute to play at this year’s Isle Of Wight Festival and the
legendary CBGBs in New York City. CBGBs was the Holy Grail of American Punk
and New Wave, where the real Blondie kicked off their career.
Being big BLONDIE fans we decided to pay tribute to New York's classic new
wave band of the
70s and 80s.
Debbie Harris,
lead vocalist of Bootleg Blondie, has the looks, the voice and attitude of
the original Blondie Bombshell, and like her heroine is typically outrageous
on stage. She has been known to wear dustbin liners, thigh high boots and
t.shirts with more holes than t.shirt!
Debbie Harris and the
boys have met the REAL Blondie and are officially endorsed by the band.
Deborah Harry got in touch when she heard we were playing at CBGBs to wish
us good luck with our show and both Deborah and Chris Stein have signed the
band’s guitars. When Clem Burke , Blondie’s drummer, found out that we were
making a replica of his Premier drum kit, he arranged to meet us and signed
our bass drum skin. During the 2010 Blondie tour of the UK we took Clem out
for a trip around London in our tour bus and he even signed that too!!!
Debbie has appeared as a Deborah Harry look-a-like on ITV’s ‘The Mint’
and has been featured in the The Sunday Observer, photographed
by the famous rock photographer Kevin Cummins, who co-incidentally
has worked with the real Deborah Harry and Blondie!
Debbie Harris is the niece of the celebrated singer and actress
Shani Wallis who played Nancy in Lionel Bart’s musical film 'Oliver'!
