Cryptic Bands And Singers 5

Another in our series of cryptic bands and singers rounds, this pub quiz handout round features 15 cryptic clues for teams to try to decipher and come up with the names of 15 famous bands or singers from past and present. For example, the correct answer to the cryptic clue "Italian city with appliance" is Florence And The Machine.

As in the example above, a few of these cryptic clues are fairly straightforward and most teams in your quiz should be able to get up and running on this round without too much trouble. However, there are also some tricky clues that are likely to take a fair bit of puzzling over before teams arrive at the correct answer.

It is recommended that these cryptic clues are used in a quiz as a handout round. For more information on handout rounds and our recommended use for them in quizzes click here
