When Britannia ruled the airwaves!

The British Invasion Show – featuring Johnny Warman (Peter Gabriel) and Dave Gregory (XTC, Big Big Train, Tin Spirits) – relives an iconic time from 1964 to 1967 when British groups captured American charts and minds.

So get ready for classic tracks by all-conquering heroes like The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, Cream, Them, The Yardbirds, The Small Faces, Pink Floyd, The Kinks and many more.

"We perform all the classics by bands like The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, The Who, The Kinks, The Pretty Things, Dave Clarke 5, The Moody Blues and early Pink Floyd," says Johnny. "The audience gets a two-hour show, and we pack in as much as we can. We make sure people get their money's worth."

Dave and Johnny Warman first met in 1980 when Johnny supported XTC on the release of their Black Sea album: "It was an amazing experience I'll never forget, and I learned so much from them. It's great to work with Dave again."

For Johnny, the British Invasion Show is all about paying tribute to one of the greatest eras in music: "This is the music that gave us the opportunity to follow our heroes and our own creative paths. All guitarists should come and watch Dave, who is a virtuoso – his attention to detail is extraordinary."

"The greatest sixties band on the planet!" Time Out
"Songs to delight the diehard fans and casual observers… played stunningly." The Herald
"If you want to see an electric performance by a band that loves music and loves what they do, go and see Johnny Warman's Magic Bus." Ridge Radio
