Event Description

It’s hard to believe it’s nearly 60 years since Hank B Marvin, Bruce Welch, Jet Harris and Tony Meehan recorded Apache. This was the monster hit that launched the Shadows instrumental career and founded a nation of bespectacled guitarists dreaming of acquiring their very own Fender Stratocaster, so we are delighted to welcome ‘The Bootleg Shadows’ to The Swindon Arts Centre.

With their immaculate appearance, synchronised dance movements and clean, pure melodic sound, the Shadows chalked up 35 hits of their own (not counting another 34 hits with Cliff Richard), giving them more hits than any other British group and securing them a unique place in the annals of popular music.

Today the Shadows make few live appearances but ‘The Bootleg Shadows’ keep their ‘live’ sound alive by performing a Must-See Concert Tribute that encompasses the Shadows amazing career from 1960 up until the early 80s.

Concert audiences are invited to relive fantastic hits such as: Apache, FBI, Wonderful Land, Foot Tapper, Atlantis, Kon-Tiki, Cavatina, Let Me Be The One, Bachelor Boy, Move It, plus many, many more

In the company of Geoff, Keith, Tony, Tim and Binks the audience is taken on a tour of the Shadows career, with plenty of humour to make it a night out to remember. For anyone who loves the sounds of the 60’s – and enjoys a few laughs on the way – ‘The Bootleg Shadows’ perform a must-see tribute that has audiences humming the tunes and doing the Shadows famous ‘walk’ long after they have left the theatre.
