(The Black Lapels)
Let the Black Lapels (Rob Warren, Garth Warren, Gareth Gale
and Luke Wyngaard) transport you back to the late 60’s and early 70’s by
performing their musical tribute to the Creedence Clearwater Revival Band.
The show runs from March 16 to 18 at Rhumbelow Theatre
Durban’s temporary location, St Cyprians Church Hall.
Back by popular demand, the CCR show allows the Black Lapels
to crank up the amps and head full-tilt into this not to be missed performance!
The set list includes all your favourite hits including, Fortunate Son, Looking out my Back Door, Down on the Corner, Up around
the Bend, Born on the Bayou, Green River and many more. Highlights of the
show include intimate renditions of CCR classics like Lodi performed solo by
Lapels front man Rob Warren. The Lapels rhythm section featuring Garth Warren
(bass) and Gareth Gale (drums) keep the set moving along at an energetic pace
and Rusty Red (lead guitar) reproduces CCR guitar lines with minimum effort!
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-70s, with
such remarkable recall that, to this day, they remain part of a fabric that
will continue to influence cultures decades from now. Bring your sons and
daughters if you can.
All of this adds up to The Black Lapels finest work to date!
