The legendary music from two of the greatest names in rock music comes to
life in a very special event entitled "EXPERIENCE - A Tribute to Jimi Hendrix and Stevie
Ray Vaughan" - featuring three of Australian finest rock and blues musicians, Kevin
Borich, Mal Eastick & Steve Edmonds.
Like millions of people around the world these three performers have been influenced by
the music of Hendrix and Vaughan and for many years they have incorporated the essence of
the two legends into their own playing, becoming disciples of the style. Hendrix's music
in particular helped shape a generation. His arrival and subsequent performances in
United Kingdom in the late sixties turned the British music scene on it's head. Players
such as Eric Clapton, Pete Townshend, Jeff Beck and many more were absolutely astounded
at what Hendrix was able to achieve with his guitar and outrageous stage persona. He was
a black superstar that had massive appeal to white audiences both male and female. On the
other hand Vaughan's legacy is that he resurrected the blues with a Hendrix inspired rock
approach. His ferocious guitar playing reverberated around the world, inspiring countless
players along the way.
This show will revisit timeless rock and blues classics such as Jimi's Voodoo Chile,
Manic Depression, Foxy Lady, and Purple Haze, and Stevie's classic Cold Shot, Texas
Flood, Couldn't Stand The Weather and Pride & Joy.
Hendrix's influence continues to define rock music as we know
it.
Vaughan's explosive playing took the world by storm.
Both took their music into the stratosphere and beyond.
Take the trip - Experience it all in one big show!
Special guests include John Makey (vocals) Ian Lees (bass) and Rudy Miranda (drums)
