THE TRIUMPHS  - The Triumphs are a UK based Joe Meek Tribute band and were formed especially for a performance at the inaugural Joe Meek Festival in 2007. Three members of the band are members of the Joe Meek Society and the other two are fans of and are closely associated with the music of Joe Meek. The band’s ethos is to play Joe Meek’s music live to keep it alive and also to inform audiences about Joe and his music. The band’s Joe Meek repertoire covers the whole of Joe’s recording career, starting from when Joe first became a recording engineer at EMI, Pye and Philips records; his time at Arundel Gardens in London; the period in 1960 when he founded his own record label, Triumph Records, after which the band is named; and his recorded legacy from his occupancy at 304 Holloway Road where he lived and recorded until his death on 3 February 1967.
