Award-winning musical production of The Chicago Blues Brothers at Theatre Royal, a tribute to the original Blues Brothers.
The Chicago Blues Brothers play Theatre Royal on Thursday 12 November. They're a tribute band to the original Blues Brothers, and this particular show, Live at the Country Bunker, is billed as a brand new chapter for them.
It draws on the group's sell-out tours of the last decade and works its way through a smorgasbord of America's biggest rhythm and blues hits, taking the audience on a journey through the country's most famous music cities, from Motown to Nashville. The set is built around that R&B sound, and the whole thing runs for about two hours.
Reviewers have praised the live band as tight, powerful and full of the authentic Blues Brothers sound, with singers capable of filling the theatre. It's a full-band show, so you'll get the brass and the rhythm section that the original act was known for, rather than just a few tracks and a singer. The focus is on the live performance, with the band playing through the set rather than relying on a backing track.
