A+Team

We've got the 80's covered!

About Me


In 1972 a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Deland underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as an 80's new-wave synth-pop cover band. If you have a party, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A+Team.
