On stage: Saturday
 

Artist Biog

Dubbed “Britain’s answer to the Jackson Five” with their dynamic sound and fabulous dance routines, Five Star rocked the British and US pop charts in the 80s.  Named and managed by their father Buster Pearson, the band scored a total of 16 top 40 singles, 6 of which went top ten, and achieved a multi-platinum selling UK no.1 album in 1986 with “Silk & Steel”.  A formidable live act in the 80s, they sold out 6 nights at Wembley Arena to an audience of more than 60,000 in their 1987 UK tour.  The five siblings make their Rewind Festival debut in 2012, celebrating their 25th anniversary in the music industry.
