Expect superlative musicianship, skilled interpretation, irresistible exuberance and unique presentation, in what is said to be the closest possible alternative to the man himself.
The show promises awesome musicianship, great vocals, killer guitars, Bowie big screen media and lighting, plus a heartfelt and genuine respect for the man and his music. All performed in a style fitting to the creative genius that is David Bowie.
Simply the best Bowie sounds you will hear performed by the world’s finest Bowie band.
Liverpool has always had a soft spot for Bowie and his influence upon generations of Merseyside musicians has been unparalleled and remains strong to this day.
