Orbison

If you love good music, then this is the show for you as Barry Steele presents his all live spectacular Multi Media Tribute to The Big O, featuring classic Orbison hits from the 60’s right through to the Late 80’s when Roy joined a band of men, who called themselves The ... Traveling Wilbury’s.

Using both Original and film footage from the era, and backed by his fabulous 5 piece band, Barry Steele will bring the life and character of Roy Orbison back to the centre stage, where it truly belongs, as he puts the rock back into The Big O, with his trademark dark rimmed glasses, soaring vocals and Orbison style.

Add to the mix the sounds of The Shadows, Ray Charles and Jerry Lee Lewis and our special star guests you have yourself a spectacular fusion of good old “Rock n Roll” and contemporary musical genius all on one stage.

Book yourself a ticket to ride this incredible musical Journey, “It’s not The Big O not the Big O’ but you simply won’t believe it!
