(The
Black Lapels: Rob Warren, Gareth Gale, Luke Wyngaard & Garth Warren)
Rhumbelow
Theatre will present Creedance Clearwater
Revival Tribute with the Black Lapels and guests who promise to transport audiences
back to the late 60,s and early 70s by performing their sell-out and
incomparable musical tribute to the Creedence Clearwater Revival Band at the
Rhumbelow Theatre in Umbilo in Durban.
With an
astounding 26 million plus record sales cred behind them, CCR established
themselves as an iconic Rock Royalty brand alongside other giants at the time
like Hendrix and the Stones, producing commercial billboard masters - Bad Moon Rising to obscure socially
conscious underground pieces like Suzy Q.
With
such iconography, John and Tom Forgery together with Doug Clifford and Stu Cook
continued to embed a DNA up until the mid-70’s, with such remarkable recall
that, to this day, they remain part of a fabric that will continue to influence
cultures decades from now.
The Black
Lapels feature Rob Warren on guitar and vocals; Garth Warren on bass and
backing vocal; Gareth Gale on drums, and Luke Wyngaard on lead guitar and
support vocals.
