From the producers of smash hit shows That’ll Be The Day and Walk Right Back comes the ultimate McCartney experience – The McCartney Songbook and it’s playing Newport for one night only!
This show takes the audience on a musical journey through Sir Paul’s career, spanning over six decades – from the early beginnings with the Fab Four, through the Wings years, to his prolific solo career.
Starring Peter John Jackson, known for his exceptional range of vocal abilities and specialising in the work of Sir Paul McCartney, a talent that’s made him the first choice for hit West End show Let It Be, The Sessions At Abbey Road and That’ll Be The Day.
Producer and lead guitarist Ollie Gray says, “Any musician or music lover will appreciate what a privilege it is to perform these songs, and getting to do this alongside Pete is just awesome”.
This powerful production gives the feel of a modern McCartney live concert, with stories and anecdotes to accompany a top-class performance of one of the most treasured British songbooks of all time.
Producer, vocalist and guitarist Peter John Jackson says “It is an honour to recreate Sir Paul McCartney’s music live on stage, and to take this show out on the road with a world class band is an absolute joy!”
The McCartney Songbook features over 40 monster hits including Band On The Run, Can’t Buy Me Love, Yesterday, Jet, Live and Let Die, Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band and Hey Jude.
The McCartney Songbook plays Newport’s Riverfront Theatre on June 15, 2023. For ticket details visit The Riverfront Theatre’s website
