West End Girls are a Swedish tribute synthpop band performing cover versions of songs by English electronic/pop music act the Pet Shop Boys. Hailing from Stockholm, the duo is comprised of Isabelle Erkendal and Rosanna Jirebeck. Erkendal provides main vocals for the band and is the "Neil Tennant" figure, whilst Jirebeck is behind her as "Chris Lowe". They have been performing together since 2003.
Unlike other cover bands, their style emulates the Pet Shop Boys rather than providing direct facsimiles. Their videos and photography echo elements seen in the Pet Shop Boys' own projects, such as industrial architecture, hats, dogs, costumes, gestures, etc., as well as techniques such as colourful lighting and mixing live action with computer graphics.
