The Rod Stewart Songbook’s spectacular theatre production is the ultimate homage to Rod Stewart, featuring Pete McCall, Europe’s foremost tribute. Along with his sensational live band, you will be taken on a musical journey spanning 50 years, when one of rock music’s greatest icons sold over 250 million records worldwide. These unforgettable hits include Sailing, Maggie May, Da Ya Think I’m Sexy, Some Guys Have All The Luck, Baby Jane, Rhythm Of My Heart, You Wear It Well, Hot Legs and many many more. 

Pete is a consummate professional, whose attention to detail shines through in every way, including stage presence and fabulous costumes. His vocal ability is unequaled and he has the closest voice in the business to the man himself. The Hull Daily Mail quoted on the 5th February 2020, “Pete McCall is the next best thing to seeing Rod himself”. Even the great Rod Stewart would be proud of the tribute paid to him by Pete McCall, in fact Rod’s sister Mary Cady, said to Pete “you were excellent”.

At the show you could easily think you were at an actual Rod Stewart concert, where the atmosphere is electric and the audience are encouraged to participate, sing along and even dance in the aisles. Unlike the majority of other theatre productions that use backing tracks, the band play 100% live, which provides that authentic flavour Rod was famous for. Wherever the venue your audience will be guaranteed a night they will never forget and will feel as though they have not just seen a show, but have had “an experience”.

Fasten your seatbelts – the Starman is here!!

‘Sound & Vision – A tribute to David Bowie’ was
launched on what would have been Bowie’s 75th birthday in 2022.

While his career spanned five
decades, he maintained his relevance to both his long-term ardent fans and
younger emerging audiences. There has never been an artist that has offered
inspiration to so many people within the music industry. His songs still have
the ability to affect and influence
music lovers across the world.

What makes Sound & Vision so
special, is their note-perfect recreation of the legend himself and the iconic
musicians he loved to work with. The 7-piece band offers audiences a chance to
fully appreciate each complex nuance of his many, many songs. And they’re all
there… Ziggy Stardust, Life on Mars, Starman, All the Young Dudes, Rebel-Rebel,
China Girl… and so many more.

Chris Burke, has an unmatched vocal similarity to
Bowie. His vocal ability allows you to enjoy each song being performed as you’d
want them to be. Perfectly recreating his voice. Close your eyes… you’d think
he was in the room. But it’s not just about the vocals. The musicianship and
talent of the other band members is truly world class. The line-up includes
Jeff John (Lead Guitar), John Wilmott (Bass), Colin Elward (Keyboards), Simon
Harry (Rhythm Guitar), Gareth Addey (Drums) and Mike Davies (Saxophone).

The show is mesmerising with
lights and a wonderful soundscape, designed to stimulate all your senses… and
it includes a few surprises too. Suitable for all ages, and will have you
dancing in the aisles.

Celebrate David Bowie's amazing
music with us. It’ll be a memorable rock experience with the UK’s best
