Fetish (Joy Division Tribute)

Fetish (Joy Division Tribute)

Fetish is a Joy Division tribute band consisting of 4 absolute JD worshippers. The music by Joy Division means a lot to us and this tribute is not about making money by copying a great band; Fetish only performs about two times a year and only on special occasions and last but not least if our busy schedules with our own bands allow it.
