Ian
Hunter has produced a matchless
repertoire of music combining homage,
honesty and killer hooks. He was
one of the toughest and most inventive
writers of the early 70s paving
the way for punk rock with his thought
provoking and gritty songs. As a
solo performer he has also succeeded
with an eclectic catalogue of superbly
intelligent albums and a dedicated
following, responsible for instantly
recognizable classics such as Once
Bitten, Twice Shy, Cleveland Rocks
and many more. For both his solo
output and work with Mott The Hoople,
Ian Hunter has been cited as a huge
inspiration by numerous artists
including The Clash, REM, Oasis,
Blur and Primal Scream. «

Kennedy's legendary interpretation
of The Four Seasons. For over twenty-five
years, Nigel Kennedy has been acknowledged
as one of the world's leading violin
virtuosos and is, without doubt,
one of the most important violinists

technique, unique talent and mass
appeal have brought fresh perspectives
to both the classical and contemporary
repertoire. He is the best selling
classical violinist of all time.
Nigel says 'I am so happy to be
bringing my new orchestra to the
UK for these dates and playing Vivaldi
and the Four Seasons - they are
amazingly brilliant young players
at the top of their form.'

In
August 2009, John Wilson and the
John Wilson Orchestra caused a sensation
with a live television broadcast
from the Royal Albert Hall for The
BBC Proms with a celebration of
the MGM film musicals. In November
2010, John and the orchestra will
reunite the original Proms cast
including Sir Thomas Allen,
Curtis Stigers
and Kim Criswell
to perform a national tour. The
sumptuous sounds of the MGM studio
orchestra will be revived by John
Wilson who will pay tribute to,
among others, composers George Gershwin,
Irving Berlin, Cole Porter, Harry
Warren, Jerome Kern, Andre Previn
and the great Hollywood arrangers
Conrad Salinger, Johnny Green and
Nelson Riddle. The concert will
feature some of Hollywood’s
best loved music from the MGM film
musicals including High Society,
Singin’ in the Rain, An American
in Paris, and The Wizard of Oz to
name a few. Much of this music will
be heard in the concert hall for
the first time in its original version
in scores newly reconstructed by
John Wilson. John and the John Wilson
Orchestra have captured the imagination
of the British public.

The
world’s first and finest
tribute band, The Bootleg Beatles,
perform their acclaimed homage
to the Fab Four. Neil
Harrison (Bootleg John Lennon);
Andre Barreau (Bootleg George)
and David Catlin-Birch (Bootleg
Paul) met in 1979 when they were
all cast in the hit West-End production,
Beatlemania. When the show finished
its run the band, knowing the
repertoire inside out, decided
to continue performing it and
thus The Bootleg Beatles were
born in 1980, along with the entire
tribute genre. What started as
4 musicians with black polo necks
and a wig has evolved into The
Bootleg Beatles’ lauded
show which combines note-perfect
renditions of Beatles repertoire,
spectacular costume changes and
a visually stunning video backdrop.
